E. Benko et al., FORMATION PECULIARITIES OF THE INTERFACIAL STRUCTURE DURING CBN WETTING WITH AG-TI, AG-ZR AND AG-HF ALLOYS, DIAMOND AND RELATED MATERIALS, 6(8), 1997, pp. 931-934
In this work the wettability of polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (c
BN) with silver alloys containing different amounts of alloy additions
of the titanium group was studied. The experiments were carried out a
t 1000 degrees C under a pressure of 1 x 10(-3) Pa. The wettability in
the systems being studied increases from Ti to Hf Differences in the
structure of the transition layer depending on the type of alloying ad
ditive used were observed which affect the adhesion between the metal
melt and cBN. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
