Journal ArticleDOI
Pretreatment of substrate surface for improved adhesion of diamond films on hard metal cutting tools
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of mechanical pretreatment by grinding and polishing with diamond powder of different grain sizes as well as chemical etching are examined on WC-Co hardmetals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sigmoidal Indentation–Strength Characteristics of Polycrystalline Alumina
TL;DR: In this paper, the fracture properties of a series of polycrystailine aluminas were examined using indentation strength and double cantilever beam techniques, and a model was developed for the general response, combining increasing toughening by ligamentary bridging at small crack lengths and increasing residual-stress relief by lateral cracking at large indentation loads.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diamond films for wear protection of hardmetal tools
TL;DR: In order to improve the wear protection of hard-metal cutting tools, polycrystalline diamond coatings with high quality have been produced by the use™-process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced nucleation of diamond films on pretreated substrates
Volker Buck,F. Deuerler +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, different mechanical and chemical pretreatments as well as intermediate layers are produced to examine their influence on nucleation density, orientation of nuclei, etc., and the effects of pretreatment on the nucleation process are studied by EDX and scanning electron microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wear mechanisms of diamond-coated tools
TL;DR: In this paper, the wear behavior of thin diamond films has been examined with abrasive particles in blast wear test and under ultrasonically-induced high frequency vibrations of a sonotrode in cavitation tests.
