Definition - Condition with respect to heat or cold, especially as indicated by the sensation produced, or by the thermometer or pyrometer; degree of heat or cold; as, the temperature of the air; high temperature; low temperature; temperature of freezing or of boiling.
Temperature and Coatings - Temperature is one of the reasons for using engineered coatings instead of traditional forms of lubrication. Many of our coatings are capable of functioning from cryogenic temperatures to over 2000° F. When selecting a coating, it is very important that the coating have the correct formulation to provide the needed temperature advantage.
