- DE 101 557 316 A1 deals primarily with the nanoscopically rough design of a bearing surface, in particular by etching the bearing surface.
- the abutment surface may, if necessary, be provided with an aluminum oxide layer with fine, outwardly open pores having an average diameter of 100 to 1000 nm, which serve for the additional uptake of particles and / or as a lubricant reservoir.
- DE 101 57 316 Al gives no other information on the formation of pores or abutment surface.

- the surface layer is amorphous and formed on average less than 100 microns thick.
- a very good, durable connection of the surface layer with the support arranged thereunder is made possible, in particular, by the surface layer of a support consisting of aluminum or an aluminum alloy being oxidized anodically to aluminum oxide.

- the pores are designed to be small compared to the prior art.
- the average diameter of the pores is preferably less than 250 nm, in particular less than 100 nm.
- This design is based on the fact that the lubricant as such does not necessarily have to be present. Rather, often satisfy the much smaller lubricant additive molecules or even moisture to achieve improved storage properties, especially in boundary friction and mixed friction or the transition from static friction to sliding friction.
- the small pores allow in particular a much better fixation of molecules, such as lubricant additives, so that compared to the prior art result in much better storage properties.
- FIGURE shows a schematic section of a proposed bearing with a proposed bearing element.
- sectional view is not to scale and is for illustrative purposes only.
- the illustrated, proposed bearing element 1 serves to form a lubricated or unlubricated bearing pairing.

Subsequently, the anodic oxidation of the surface layer 3 to alumina takes place, the pores 4 in particular exclusively through the Anodic oxidation are formed without a template.

- the surface layer 3 contains embedded in the alumina itself preferably foreign ions and / or atoms, in a proportion of at least 0, 1%, in particular at least 1% and / or less than 10%, especially about 2% to 7%.
- This proportion of foreign ions or atoms is conducive to the preferred amorphous and / or flexible formation of the surface layer 3.
- Source of these foreign ions are the acids used in the electrolyte and their corresponding anions, and optionally other additives in the electrolyte.
- the proposed surface layer 3 and the bearing element 1 have a high stability with low abrasion and an extremely high impact resistance or resistance, although aluminum or aluminum alloys usually show no such resistance.
