摘要:
Methods of forming a polycrystalline element comprise forming a polycrystalline table on a first substrate. Catalyst material may be removed from at least a portion of the polycrystalline table. The polycrystalline table and a portion of a first substrate attached to the polycrystalline table may be removed from a remainder of the first substrate. The portion of the first substrate may be attached to another substrate. Polycrystalline elements comprise a polycrystalline table attached to a portion of a first substrate on which the polycrystalline table was formed another substrate attached to the portion of the first substrate.
摘要:
Methods of forming a polycrystalline table comprise disposing a plurality of particles comprising a superabrasive material, a substrate comprising a hard material, and a catalyst material in a mold. The plurality of particles is partially sintered in the presence of the catalyst material to form a brown polycrystalline table having a first permeability attached to an end of the substrate. The substrate is removed from the brown polycrystalline table and catalyst material is removed from the brown polycrystalline table. The brown polycrystalline table is then fully sintered to form a polycrystalline table having a reduced, second permeability. Intermediate structures formed during a process of attaching a polycrystalline table to a substrate comprise a substantially fully leached brown polycrystalline table. The substantially fully leached brown polycrystalline table comprises a plurality of interbonded grains of a superabrasive material.

Polycrystalline elements comprise a substrate and a polycrystalline table attached to an end of the substrate. The polycrystalline table comprises a first region of superabrasive material having a first permeability and at least a second region of superabrasive material having a second, lesser permeability, the at least second region being interposed between the substrate and the first region. Methods of forming a polycrystalline element comprise attaching a polycrystalline table comprising a first region of superabrasive material having a first permeability and at least a second region of superabrasive material having a second, lesser permeability to an end of a substrate, the at least a second region being interposed between the first region and the substrate. Catalyst material is removed from at least the first region of the polycrystalline table.

摘要:
A cutting element comprising a substrate having an upper surface, a rear surface spaced apart from the upper surface, and a side surface connected to the rear surface and upper surface. The cutting element further includes a superabrasive layer comprising a rear surface, an upper surface, and a side surface connected to and extending between the rear surface and upper surface, wherein the rear surface of the superabrasive layer overlies the upper surface of the substrate. The cutting element is also formed to include a jacket overlying the side surface of the substrate and abutting a portion of the rear surface of the superabrasive layer, wherein the jacket comprises a flange extending along a portion of the side surface of the superabrasive layer.
摘要:
Earth-boring tools include a body, one or more blades projecting outwardly from the body, and cutting elements carried by the blade. The cutting elements include at least one shearing cutting element and at least one gouging cutting element. Methods of forming an earth-boring tool include mounting a shearing cutting element comprising an at least substantially planar cutting face to a body of an earth-boring tool, and mounting a gouging cutting element comprising a non-planar cutting face to the body of the earth-boring tool. The gouging cutting element may be positioned on the body of the earth-boring tool such that the gouging cutting element will gouge formation material within a kerf cut in the formation material by the shearing cutting element, or between kerfs cut in the formation material by a plurality of shearing cutting elements.
摘要:
A cutting element for use in a drilling bit and/or milling bit having a cutter body made of a substrate having an upper surface, and a superabrasive layer overlying the upper surface of the substrate. The cutting element further including a sleeve extending around a portion of a side surface of the superabrasive layer and a side surface of the substrate, wherein the sleeve exerts a radially compressive force on the superabrasive layer.
摘要:
Cutting elements for earth-boring tools include one or more recesses and/or one or more protrusions in a cutting face of a volume of superabrasive material. The superabrasive material may be disposed on a substrate. The cutting face may be non-planar. The recesses and/or protrusions may include one or more linear segments. The recesses and/or protrusions may comprise discrete features that are laterally isolated from one another. The recesses and/or protrusions may have a helical configuration. The volume of superabrasive material may comprise a plurality of thin layers, at least two of which may differ in at least one characteristic. Methods of forming cutting elements include the formation of such recesses and/or protrusions in and/or on a cutting face of a volume of superabrasive material. Earth-boring tools include such cutting elements, and methods of forming earth-boring tools include attaching such a cutting element to a tool body.
