摘要
Sintering of cubic boron nitride （cBN） with addition of A1 is carried out in the temperature range 1300-1500℃ and under the pressure 5.5 GPa. When sintered at 1300℃, a weak diffractive peak of hexagonal BN （hBN） is observed in the Al-cBN sample, indicating the transformation from cBN to hBN. No nitrides or borides of A1 are observed, which indicated that A1 does not react with cBN obviously. When the sintering temperature is increased to 1400℃, the diffractive peak of hBN disappears and new phases of A1N and A1B2 are observed, due to reactions between A1 and cBN. When the sintering temperature is further increased to 1500℃, the contents of A1N and A1B2 phases increase and the A1 phase disappears completely.
