The current status of diamond and cubic boron nitride composites

  • 1. 2085600ZA

Description

The development of high pressure technology which has allowed the synthesis of diamond and cubic boron nitride has also resulted in the production of a new and exciting range of ultra hard ceramic-type materials. These materials, polycrystalline diamond and cubic boron nitride composites, offer distinct advantages over their single crystal counterparts and hold the promise of a fascinating future in all areas connected with material removal and other specialist usages
