| Abstract: | Studies have been made on the structure, phase composition, and strength parameters for ceramics based on AlN containing 5–15 mass % TiO2. The tribotechnical characteristics of these ceramics have been determined under sliding friction conditions at 20–900°C in air. Quantitative characteristics are proposed for the friction surface as determined by metallographic, microdurometric, and sclerometric examination of the surfaces produced at various treatment temperatures.
