In this study, isophtalic neopentyl glycol polyester (NPG-PES) based composites with different loading ratios of pure tungsten metal (W), tungsten (VI) oxide (WO₃), tungsten boron (WB) and tungsten carbide (WC) composites were prepared as alternative shielding materials for ionizing electromagnetic radiation (IEMR) shielding. Structural characterizations of the composites were done. Gamma spectrometric analysis of composites for 80-2000 keV energy range was performed and their usability as IEMR shielding was discussed. As a result, the produced composites showed a shielding performance of 60-100% of the lead (the most widely used IEMR shielding material) depending on the reinforcement material, reinforcement loading rate and experimental conditions. Thus, it was reported that produced composites could be an alternative to lead shieldings that have several disadvantages as toxic properties, difficulty of processing and inelasticity.

This paper describes the wear characteristics of WC-Co cemented carbides machined with Wire-cut or Die-sinking EOM. We prepared the specimens with different grades of grinding to remove the affected layer after the EDM. These specimens were experimented by block-on-cylinder type tribometer. The result indicated that although the hardness of the affected layer was lower than that of the bulk, wear resistance was increased. In order to investigate the cause of the increase in wear resistance of the affected layer, the layer was observed and analyzed by SEM and ESCA. We also discussed the mean free path of Co phase.

In the previously reported Part I, the experimental results in frictional machining that finished medium carbon steel SM 50 C under 6 kinds of liquid atmospheres by using ceramic tip as a frictional tool was described. The present study reports the experimental results that all the machining conditions are same in the Part I except tool material changed ceramics into tungsten carbide. The ceramic tool material is a stable oxide and a non-metallic material, but the tungsten carbide has the metallic characteristics that adhere to carbon steel at about 750.deg.C. The present study shows th comparison of the experimental results for the above 2 kinds of frictional tool material.

The quality and productivity in machining automobile parts are influenced by various factors such as cutting conditions, vibration, and used tool. To improve the quality and productivity of the automobile parts(torsion beam), lots of research on the evaluation of tool life and control of surface roughness has been required. Therefore, the width of flank wear, cutting force, and surface roughness are monitored to analyse the characteristics of tool wear and surface roughness at different tools. This experimental investigation is mainly focused on the characteristics of the tool wear, tool life and surface roughness in multi-insert milling of automobile parts(torsion beam) by using uncoated tungsten carbide tool(WC), TiN coated tool, and cermet tool.

In this study, the carbon steels, SM20C were machined with the tungsten carbide tipped circular saw to clarify the cutting-off characteristics in terms of tool wear. The results show that an improved performance in view of both the tool wear and the cutting efficiency was obtained by using oil base cutting fluid at the cutting speed of 100m/min with the feed of 0.06mm/tooth. The rake angle of 10$^{\circ}$ , clearance angle of 8$^{\circ}$ , nose radius of R0.1mm, and end cutting edge champer of 0.1mm$\times$25$^{\circ}$ are believed as the best tool geometries. The tool wear decreases due to using the saw of the disk of STS5 and the tool material of P30.

The machinability of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy and tool wear behavior in machining of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy was studied to understand the machining characteristics. This material is one of the strong candidate materials in present and future aerospace or medical applications. Recently, their usage has already been broaden to everybody's commercial applications such as golf heads, finger rings and many decorative items. To anticipate the general use of this material and development of the titanium alloys in domestic facilities, the review and the study of the machining parameters for those alloys are necessary. This study is concentrated to the machining parameters of the Ti-6A1-4V alloy due to their dominant position in the production of titanium alloys.

The effects of forming presure, organic binder content and moisture on flexural strength were investigated. As moisture content increased in the granules during compaction, the density and strength of the green body were increased. Green strengths were found to improve more strongly with increasing forming pressure in the case of using the granules of higher organic content. The sintered strength was the highest with the organic content of 0.2wt％ under all forming pressures.

Chipping is an unavidable phenomean in the slot grinding process of hard and brittle materials. However,it should be reduced for the improvement of surface integrity in the manufacture of optical and semiconductor components. Electrolytic In-process Dressing (ELID) technique for metal bonded superabrasive grinding wheel has been developed for mirror surface grinding of hard and brittle materials. Electrically dressed wheel surface has sharply exposed abrasives and results in lower grinding force, higher grinding efficiency in grinding. The paper deals with a newly developed method for slot grinding using ELID and was implemented to improve grooved surface quality and decreases chipping size on the edge of the groove. As a result, we accomplished shipping-free grooves and obtained the clear ground sufaces on glass and tungsten carbide.
