Electroless nickel with dispersed PTFE

Electroless nickel coatings (here with approx. 15 wt% P) are excellently suited as a matrix for dispersed hard materials or dry lubricants, whose properties add to those of the nickel layer (corrosion resistance and hardness). (corrosion resistance and hardness). The layer shown contains in the uppermost 7 µm fine PTFE particles to improve the sliding properties.
