Developments of New Ceramic Materials for Cutting Tool

Cutting-Tool Materials and Cutting Fluids

The reasons for the availability of a large variety of cutting-tool materials is best appreciated by reviewing the top eight parameters in the first column in Table 22.2 on p. 638. Among various factors, the type of workpiece material machined, the type of operation, and the surface finish and dimensional accuracy required all affect the choice of a cutting-tool material. For example, for inter...

Development and Application of New Cutting Tool Materials

The development of new cutting tool materials during the last few years is based mainly on submicron hardmetal substrates as well as on new PVD and CVD coatings. The development of submicron and nanopowders with higher strength and higher fracture toughness solves problems in machining high-temp alloys, hard materials, and in dry cutting. Based on physical models used to calculate stress in the...

The Impact of Cutting Tool Materials on Cutting Force

A judicious choice of insert material, tool geometry and cutting conditions can make hard turning produce better surfaces than grinding. In the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of cutting tool materials on cutting forces (feed force, thrust force and cutting force) in finish hard turning of AISI D2 cold work tool steel. In conclusion of the results obtained with...

Janus Green Dye as a New Reagent for Catalytic Kinetic Determination of Zirconium in Ceramic Materials

A new catalytic kinetic spectrophotometric procedure for determination of trace quantities of zirconium was proposed. Janus Green was oxidized by potassium bromate and zirconium catalyst which then converted to a colorless product in acidic media. Reaction rate was monitored spectrophotometrically at 606 nm. It relies on the linear relationship between the absorbance difference (ΔAt) and Zr(IV)...
