Ti particles deposited on the surface of diamond were found by SEM and formation of TiC was verified by X ray diffraction analysis after heat treatment of the coatings in vacuum at 900 ℃. The binding strength between the coated diamond and the metal matrix was improved effectively in the diamond composite based on metal cement.展开更多

It is found that sintering temperature has a significant effect on the TRS of Fe-based diamond composites. The optimal sin tering temperature is 780~860 ℃. On the contrary, the effects of RE additi v es on values of TRS of the diamond composites have on distinct difference no mat ter the RE is in the state of mixture or compound or oxidization. Experimental r esults demonstrate that Fe-based diamond composites with RE additives exhibit h igher TRS, which results in an increase in diamond retention capacity. The degre e of increment of TRS is different at different sintering temperatures. The opti mal amount of rare earth was found to be about 1% in weight. The effect of RE is more significant at lower sintering temperature. The experimental results also reveal that TiH 2 additive has a negative effect on the TRS of Fe-based compos ites. Microscope observations demonstrate that specimen without TiH 2 additives , shows fewer pores and denser structures in the base metal. It can also be seen from the SEM observation of the resulting fracturing surface of bending test sp ecimens that the bonding of the diamond-matrix interface is better in the speci men without TiH 2 than in the specimen with TiH 2. Also the fracture surface o f the specimen without TiH 2 reveals ductile cup and cone behavior.展开更多

The enhancements of the thermomechanical performance of bulk diamond compacts in terms of hardness, fracture toughness, wear resistance, impact strength, and thermal stability are our project objectives. It is to aim at applying an advanced nanosynthesis process for the manufac-turing of superhard and ultratough diamond/SiC nanocomposites with the implementation of nanofiber reinforcement. The R&D re-sults can be used in multi-industrial applications, particularly, for drill bits designed to encounter dynamic impacts for high speed oil/gas drillings, thus to achieve high efficiency and energy saving. Science and technology (S&T) researches on precursors, cata-lyst, reactive sintering, and in-situ/real-time characterization of high P-T neutron/X-ray diffraction studies on phase stability, syn-thesis kinetics, residual strain, and yield strength have been applied to help optimizing the nanomanufacturing process. Our R&D ef-fort in high P-T nanosynthesis of TSP diamond/SiC composites is to achieve superior performance of nanomechanics in resisting dy-namic impact and thermal degradation, while still maintaining the super-hardness and super-abrasiveness of diamond and silicon-car-bide. The improved polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) bit inserts for drilling, boring, and cutting will be applied in harsh envi-ronments so as to meet the demands of the mining, petroleum, and machinery industries. With success of the proposed project, the expected energy savings and reduction of CO2 emission will be significant and the economic advantages are going to be enormous.展开更多
