Abstract
Tool materials combining the highest toughness, wear resistance, and low coefficient of friction extremes are produced by individually coating hard 0.5-2.0-micrometer core particles (e.g., diamond, CBN, Al 2O 3) with tough materials (e.g., tungsten carbide and cobalt), which in the sintering or thermalcladding process become the contiguous matrix. This revolutionary class of designed-nanostructure materials called Tough-Coated Hard Particles (TCHPs, or EternAloy®) provides an unprecedented integration of multiple property extremes in ultra-performance tools, mechanical components, and thermally-applied coatings.
