Improvement of Conventional Polycrystalline Diamond Composites by Nanodiamond Incorporation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Polycristalline diamond composites (PDC) obtained by sintering of micro sized diamond particles together with silicon as binder is a conventional superhard material for high speed cutting tools. nanosized dispersed diamond particles have been recently used as precursor for a new generation of superhard composites. In the present work, PDCs were produced by sintering at high pressure and high temperature using a mixture of micro and nanosized diamond particles for optimized compactation. The values of density and hardness as well the results of X-ray diffraction suggest a plastic deformation of the larger diamond particles. The compression strength of these composites was found to be close to that of natural diamonds.
