Abstract—Severe and precise operating conditions have led to the study and invention of antifriction, negligible lubricant and long life bearing materials. Ceramic and Hybrid Ceramics are one of such bearing materials. The low tendency of adhesion between steel and ceramic components and even less between ceramic parts among themselves provides significant advantage in dry run and under lubricated run. The Technology of hybrid ceramics and ceramic bearings along with their applications and wear rate behavior of different ceramics will be discussed in this paper

Index Terms—Ceramic bearing, Hybrid bearing, Friction, Silicon nitride
