Abstract:
A superabrasive compact and a method of making the superabrasive compact are disclosed. A superabrasive compact may comprise a diamond table and a substrate. The diamond table may be attached to the substrate. The diamond table may include bonded diamond grains defining interstitial channels. The interstitial channels may be filled with at least two types of carbides in the first region. The interstitial channels in the second region may be filled with a metal catalyst from the substrate. The carbides can be SiC and aluminum carbide. The metal catalyst is Fe/Co/Ni or alloys from these.
Abstract:
A superabrasive compact and a method of making the superabrasive compact are disclosed. A superabrasive compact may comprise a superabrasive volume and a substrate. The substrate may be attached to the superabrasive volume via an interface. The superabrasive volume may be formed by a plurality of polycrystalline superabrasive particles. The superabrasive particles may have nano or sub-micron scale surface texture.The surface texture is the result of treating the diamond or cBN particles in hydrogen or oxygen- containing atmoshere. The diamond or cBN particles are joined with the cemented tungsten carbide substrate by high pressure high temperature sintering.
