摘要:
A downhole cutting tool includes a tool body with a cutting element or cutting element pocket thereon. At least a portion of the tool body or an attachment thereto is a metal matrix composite formed from metal carbide particles dispersed in a continuous metal matrix. The metal carbide particles make up less than 45 wt % of the metal matrix composite and/or less than 30 vol % of the metal matrix composite. The continuous metal matrix may also be formed from a metal or metal alloy other than Ni—Si—B and/or have a transverse rupture strength greater than 150 ksi and a fracture toughness over 22 ksi*in0.5.

A cutting tool may include a tool body, blades extending from the tool body, and primary cutting elements and backup cutting elements are on each of blades. The backup cutting elements may be behind and at approximately the same radial distance from the axis of the tool body as a corresponding primary cutting element, where the primary cutting elements include cutting elements having a first non-planar shape and the backup cutting elements include cutting elements having a second, different non-planar shape.

A cutting element may include a substrate including a plurality of metal carbide particles and a first metal binder having a first metal binder content; an outer layer of polycrystalline diamond material at an end of the cutting element, the polycrystalline diamond material including a plurality of interconnected diamond particles; and a plurality of interstitial regions disposed among the interconnected diamond particles, the plurality of interstitial regions containing a second metal binder having a second metal binder content. The cutting element also includes at least one transition zone between the substrate and the outer layer, the at least one transition zone including a plurality of refractory metal carbide particles and a third metal binder having a third metal binder content, the third metal binder content being less than the first metal binder content and the second metal binder content.
摘要:
PCD materials comprise a diamond body having bonded diamond crystals and interstitial regions disposed among the crystals. The diamond body is formed from diamond grains and a catalyst material at high pressure/high temperature conditions. The diamond grains have an average particle size of about 0.03 mm or greater. At least a portion of the diamond body has a high diamond volume content of greater than about 93 percent by volume. The entire diamond body can comprise high volume content diamond or a region of the diamond body can comprise the high volume content diamond. The diamond body includes a working surface, a first region substantially free of the catalyst material, and a second region that includes the catalyst material. At least a portion of the first region extends from the working surface to depth of from about 0.01 to about 0.1 mm.

摘要:
A cutting element may include a substrate, an upper surface of the substrate including a crest, the crest transitioning into a depressed region, and an ultrahard layer on the upper surface, thereby forming a non-planar interface between the ultrahard layer and the substrate. A top surface of the ultrahard layer includes a cutting crest extending along at least a portion of a diameter of the cutting element, the top surface having a portion extending laterally away from the cutting crest having a lesser height than a peak of the cutting crest.
摘要:
A carbide composite for a downhole tool may be formed by depositing a first layer on a substrate, and a second layer at least partially adjacent to the first layer. The first and second layers may each include carbides, metal binders, organic binders, or a combination thereof. The first and second carbide layers may have a different particle size, particle shape, carbide concentration, metal binder concentration, or organic binder concentration from one another.
