  • An attempt was made to understand the dissolution and reprecipitation behavior of the constituent phases such as TiC, TiN, and Ti(CN) in TiC-TiN-Ni system. During the liquid-phase sintering the TiC phase was found to dissolve preferentially in Ni binder. The solid-solution phase, Ti(CN), formed around the TiN phase, resulting in a core/rim structure. This result was reproduced when large TiC particles were used with fine TiN particles. The path for the microstructural change in TiC-TiN-Ni system was largely controlled by the difference in the interfacial energy of each phase with the liquid binder phase. The results were discussed with thermodynamic principles.

  • TiCN based submicron cermet and similar ISO grad of the conventional cermets with TiCN of different particle size were produced by PM process, and their microstructure, mechanical properties and cutting performance were compared. The microstructure of submicron cermet was more homogeneous and showed much finer microstructure, resulting in better hardness and fracture toughness. The submicron cermet tools achieved excellent cutting performance such as wear resistance and toughness in comparison with two grades of the conventional cermets in millimg test. The relationship between microstrucure, mechanical properties and cutting performance of these cermet tools was discussed. The submicron cermet tools revealed for their potential to wide application range and interrupt cutting because of their superior wear resistance and toughness combinations.

  • After drilling, reaming is required to process a workpiece for obtaining an excellent surface quality. In general, a cermet is defined as a "composite of a ceramic hard phase and metal-bonded phase." Cermets have excellent abrasion resistance, thermal resistance, and performance in finishing operations that require surface roughness and processing precision. However, although cermets have significant advantages, research on them is insufficient. In this study, workpiece SM45C was machined using drills and cermet reamers. The cermet reamer was processed for drag finishing for 0, 4, and 6 min. The experimental results showed the effects of drag finishing on surface roughness and dimensional accuracy.
