Face cutting of tungsten carbide was conducted using two monocrystalline diamond tools and three polycrystalline diamond tools to investigate the wear characteristics in terms of the crystal structure and composition of the diamond. It was found that the wear of the monocrystalline diamond tool depends on the crystal planes that form the rake face and flank face of the cutting tool, and a cleavage fracture occurs when the cutting force acts as a shear force on the (111) crystal plane. The binderless nano-polycrystalline diamond tool exhibits excellent wear resistance beyond those of the sintered polycrystalline diamond tool and chemical vapour deposition polycrystalline diamond tool, as well as better wear resistance than the monocrystalline diamond tool.

AbstractA novel low temperature process for the chemical vapour deposition of titanium nitride films has been developed. Titanium sub-halides generated “in situ” by chlorination of titanium pellets are subsequently reacted with ammonia at reduced pressure and temperatures of 450–600° C. The coatings have excellent adhesion and wear resistance. A description of the process and the properties of the coatings produced by it will be presented.

This study analyses residual stress measurement using X-Ray diffraction method on ultrafine-polycrystalline diamonds and polycrystalline diamonds films grown using Hot Filament Chemical Vapour Deposition technique (HFCVD) on silicon nitride(Si3N4) and tungsten carbide (WC) substrates in the same chamber at the same time with varied pretreatments prior to HFCVD diamond deposition. Measurements were taken perpendicular to the surface and the measured residual stress states of the diamond films are in compression. Thus, assuming isotropic properties of the film, the diamond films grown have tension residual stress parallel to the surface of the substrate. Residual stress is estimated to have the lowest stress for substrate that has undergone 5g/liter silicon carbide seeding process. Effects of residual stress to adhesion are discussed for both substrates.

The influence of the tungsten-carbide (WC) particle size and Co contents of cemented carbides on polycrystalline diamond tool wear during turning was investigated experimentally. The main results obtained were as follows. (1) Tool wear increased with increasing Co content. (2) It is important to cut off the binder between the WC particles and the Co. (3) Cemented carbides containing small WC particles are more effective than cemented carbides containing large particles.

This study presents a method for extending the life of tools in cutting of Carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRP). In the previous study, our research group found that the use of two layer tool, which has a wear resistance distribution due to the use of a combination of two different materials with different hardnesses, is effective for decreasing cutting force during machining of CFRP composites. In the two layer tool, a narrow region of the flank face close to the tool edge and the whole of the rake face were made of a material with a relatively high wear resistance, e.g., diamond or polycrystalline diamond (PCD). In contrast, the other region of the flank face was made of a material with a relatively low wear resistance, e.g., tungsten carbide (WC-Co). In this study, based on some experiments, the effect of the thickness of high wear resistance region on the reduction effects of cutting forces was investigated.
