Abstract
A mixture of metal (Ti, Cr, or W) powders and diamond particles was subjected to vacuum-heat treatment. The high temperature generated by the thermal-explosion reaction of the Ni–Al compact promoted the rapid sublimation of the metal powders, forming a carbide coating. Results showed that these metal elements evaporated rapidly and were deposited onto the surface of the diamond particles after the thermal explosion. The difference carbide coating was formed onto the surface of diamond particles. The carbides that formed in the coating were nanoscale or sub-microscale. Finally, the formation mechanism of coatings was explained from the perspectives of reaction thermodynamics and saturated evaporation pressure.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Superhard Materials presents up-to-date results of basic and applied research on production, properties, and applications of superhard materials and related tools. It publishes the results of fundamental research on physicochemical processes of forming and growth of single-crystal, polycrystalline, and dispersed materials, diamond and diamond-like films; developments of methods for spontaneous and controlled synthesis of superhard materials and methods for static, explosive and epitaxial synthesis. The focus of the journal is large single crystals of synthetic diamonds; elite grinding powders and micron powders of synthetic diamonds and cubic boron nitride; polycrystalline and composite superhard materials based on diamond and cubic boron nitride; diamond and carbide tools for highly efficient metal-working, boring, stone-working, coal mining and geological exploration; articles of ceramic; polishing pastes for high-precision optics; precision lathes for diamond turning; technologies of precise machining of metals, glass, and ceramics. The journal covers all fundamental and technological aspects of synthesis, characterization, properties, devices and applications of these materials. The journal welcomes manuscripts from all countries in the English language.
