The manufacturer of the spacecraft separation systems addressed to the Modengy company for selecting a coating for the purpose of keeping equipment units functionality at exposure to low and high temperatures.
Under outer space conditions where exposure to temperature changes and radiation makes the requirements to the materials used significantly strict, application of the anti-friction coatings gets especially relevant since liquid lubricants and greases lose their efficiency in space environment.
MODENGY 1014 anti-friction solid-film coating based on PTFE and molybdenum disulfide was selected and offered by our engineers. It provides long-term protection for the parts against wear, increases their operational durability under extreme conditions of outer space even after long downtime of the equipment.
MODENGY 1014 compares favorably with the coatings used in those units before by more perfect applying technology as well as enlarged service temperatures range (-75 to +255 °С).
MODENGY coatings are intended to be used under most complicated operational conditions providing friction, wearing intensity reduction, protection for the equipment against adverse external factors.
