Abstract Ceramic cutting tools are mainly used in high-speed dry machining, thus the tool material is in high temperature friction state with the workpiece material during cutting. The tribological characterizations have a direct impact on the cutting performance of the tool. Therefore, tribological characterizations of two kinds of ceramic tool materials with different mechanical properties against hardened steel H13 were compared at the same temperature, one material is Al2O3/(W,Ti)C/Ni with Ni(marked as AWTN), another is Al2O3/(W,Ti)C without Ni(marked as AWT). Also, the variation of tribological characterizations of AWT ceramic tool material with different temperatures was emphatically investigated. The results showed that the average friction coefficients of AWT and AWTN decreased with the increase of sliding speed under the same load, and the friction coefficient of AWT was lower than that of AWTN. Although AWTN material had better flexural strength and fracture toughness than AWT at ambient temperature, yet better hardness of AWT material both at room temperature and high temperature led to the lower friction coefficient and lower wear rate, indicating that the hardness had a greater impact on the wear of ceramic tool materials. The friction coefficient of AWT decreased with the increase of load and increased with the increase of temperature. The wear mechanism of Al2O3/(W,Ti)C ceramic tool material was different at different temperatures. The conclusion of this research had important guiding significance for the selection of cutting tools and cutting parameters in order to improve the machining quality.

Ti(C, N) based ceramic tool materials in the Ti (C0.7N0.3)-(Ni-Co)-Cr3C2-VC system have been made by hot-pressing technology, their mechanical properties and fracture morphologies have been studied under three different fabrication conditions. The results show that the mechanical properties are significantly influenced by fabrication conditions, and the main fracture mode is intergranular fracture.

The Al2O3(nm)/SiC(μm)/Al2O3(μm)ceramic tool materials were fabricated by the hot-pressing technique. Effect of the compositions on microstructure and mechanical properties is investigated. With nano-particles content decreasing, the flexural strength increased and fine grains can be obtained. When the nano-alumina content is 60wt%, the grain of this sample is fine, the Vickers hardness and flexural strength are 16.24 GPa and 678 MPa, respectively.

TiB2/WC/h-BN micro-nano composite gradient self-lubricating ceramic tool material was prepared by vacuum hot-pressing technique. The mechanical properties were tested and compared. The best flexural strength, fracture toughness and Vickers hardness of the tool material were 678MPa, 4.75MPa·m1/2 and 15.1GPa, respectively. The microstructure was analyzed by thermal field emission scanning electron microscope (SEM). TiB2 nanoparticles were obviously observed in the ceramic matrix. It suggested that the developed TiB2/WC/h-BN micro-nano composite gradient self-lubricating ceramic tool materials will have potential application in dry machining.

A new nanomicro composite self-lubricating ceramic tool material was prepared with vacuum hot pressing technique. The effect of nanoAl2O3 powders on the microstructure and mechanical properties of nanomicro composite self-lubricating ceramic tool material was investigated. With the increase of nanoAl2O3 content, the hardness and fracture toughness first up then down. When the nanoAl2O3 content is 4 vol.%, the flexural strength, hardness and fracture toughness reaches 562 MPa, 8.46 MPa·m1/2 and 18.95 GPa, respectively. The microstructure and mechanical property of nanomicro composite self-lubricating ceramic tool material can be improved by the grain refinement strengthening of nanoAl2O3.

Based on the microstructure results of Monte Carlo simulation, a three-dimensional grid model is built up, and imported into the finite element software with C++ language to analyze the mechanical properties of ceramic tool material. The stress field and residual stress of single-phase and multiphase ceramics have been analyzed by the computer simulation technology.
