Abstract

A novel process will be used to create metal matrix composite systems with exceptionally high hardness, low friction, and greatly enhanced wear performance. Lightweight metal surfaces will receive a unique ceramic coating that will be bonded beneath the sub-surface of the host metal. These unique materials will provide enhanced wear and performance attributes. Our revolutionary metal matrix composite system will provide Air Force with enhanced durability and reliability of lightweight metal alloys used in a wide variety of assets.
