Abstract

Diamond tool based on Ni-Al self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) was introduced in this paper. Different heating methods such as muffle furnace, vacuum furnace and induction were used to ignite the Ni-Al-diamond SHS system. The morphology and microstructure of the Ni-Al-diamond composite were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was found that SHS Ni-Al-diamond composite ignited by induction heating owned the best morphology and microstructure to work as diamond tool.
