Abstract:

In the present work, by selecting Si3N4, TiB2 and Al2O3 as binding agents as well as La3O2 as an additive, sintered wBN composites were studied. By modifying the number of sintering cycles, the composites processed at 4.5GPa and 1800°C showed improved mechanical properties. The degree of transformation of the wBN, as well as the chemical reactions during the sintering process were discussed. This new composite material was found to present polycrystalline structure that provides superior cutting properties. Moreover, owing to superior properties, the wBN composite sharpens itself during cutting.
