With the optimal dispersing and fabricating technology, this multi-scale and multi-phase nanocomposite ceramic tool material can get both higher flexural strength and fracture toughness than that of A1203/TiC (LZ) ceramic tool material without nano-scale TiN particle, especially the fracture toughness can reach to 7.8 MPa . m^0.5. The nano-scale TiN can lead to the grain fining effect and promote the sintering process to get a higher density. The coexisting transgranular and intergranular fracture mode induced by micro-scale TiC and nano-scale TiN, and the homogeneous and densified microstructure can result in a remarkable strengthening and toughening effect. The cutting performance and wear mechanisms of the advanced multi-scale and multi-phase nanocomposite ceramic cutting tool are researched.展开更多

SEM and TEM observatioas of the microstructure of the above material reveal that nano- TiN modified cermets possess a finer microstructare than conventional cermets. In the cutting tests, for comparison, cemented carbide cutter ( YG8, tool B) was also utilized. The cutting results show that the cutting properties of tool A are superior to those of tool B. It is also Jound that the predominant failare mode of tool A is normal wear and micro-spalling under lower cutting quantities, and that chipping occurs under higher cutting quanthies . SEM analysis reveals that cohesion, oxidation and diffusion wear become very apparent at a higher cutting speed. On the contrary, grain wear also exists but is not apparent.展开更多
