Therefore, when the present inventor etc. make cBN sintered body, on the constituent of cBN sintered body and the surface of cBN particle, such as by ALD (ald (Atomic Layer Deposition), on base material in vacuum chamber, the molecule of starting compound is successively reacted, and the purging repeating Ar and nitrogen is to carry out the method for film forming, the one of CVD) method etc., be pre-formed the Al of small thickness 2o 3film, by this in advance by Al 2o 3the cBN particle of film coating and Al 2o 3powder is used as material powder and makes cBN sintered body, found that as follows: because the surface of cBN particle is in advance by Al 2o 3film is coated with, even if therefore improve the cBN of this cBN sintered body containing proportional, the frequency that cBN particle contacts with each other also can reduce, and cBN particle keeps mutually securely by combining, even if therefore use under the machining condition having high load capacity effect, point of a knife generation defect also can be suppressed.
In addition, the present inventor etc. find as follows: use surface by Al 2o 3the described cBN particle that film is coated with is as the material powder of cBN sintered body, and, determine the particle diameter of this cBN particle in sintered body in the mode becoming regulation domain size distribution, cBN particle is further by reliably and keep securely in combination mutually thus, and therefore fracture resistance is further enhanced.
That is, discovery is as follows: when using the Al being coated with small thickness in advance 2o 3the cBN particle of film is as the constituent of cBN sintered body and cBN particle and when being defined as the domain size distribution of regulation by its domain size distribution, cBN particle in combination mutually by firmly and reliably keep, even if therefore for when having a machining of high load capacity effect, also can fracture resistance be improved.
The present invention completes in view of above-mentioned opinion, and its feature is as follows:
(1) a kind of cubic boron nitride base ultra-high pressure sintered material cutting tool, wherein, in the constituent of cubic boron nitride base ultra-high pressure sintered material, cubic boron nitride is 50 ~ 85vol%, surplus is based on aluminium oxide, and, when measuring the cross section of described cubic boron nitride base ultra-high pressure sintered material, cubic boron nitride population relative to cubic boron nitride particle the gross area shared by total area ratio be greater than 0.10 and less than 0.35, described cubic boron nitride population has the area of 2.5 times of the average area being greater than cubic boron nitride particle, the average area of described cubic boron nitride particle can be calculated by the average grain diameter of cubic boron nitride particle.
(2) the crystalline boron nitride base ultra-high pressure sintered material cutting tool recorded in described (1), wherein, the cubic boron nitride particle in cubic boron nitride base ultra-high pressure sintered material containing proportional be 70 ~ 85 volume %.
Below, the present invention will be described.
In cBN instrument of the present invention, form tool base by cBN agglomerated material, use the Al being coated with small thickness in advance 2o 3the cBN particle of film is as the cBN material powder of this cBN agglomerated material.
CBN particle surface is coated with to the Al of small thickness 2o 3film, such as, can be undertaken by ALD method.
In ALD method, in fluid bed furnace, load cBN particle, and be warming up to about 350 DEG C, by Al (CH 3) 3gas flows into operation, operation, H are swept in Ar air-blowing 2o gas flows into operation, Ar air-blowing sweeps operation as 1 circulation, this is cycled to repeat and carries out until become target film thickness (such as, to carry out the Al of 10nm through 1 hour 2o 3the film forming of film), can form at cBN particle surface the Al that average coated thickness is less than 1/2 of the average grain diameter of cBN particle thus 2o 3film.
At this, if Al 2o 3the average coated thickness of film more than cBN particle average grain diameter 1/2, then Al point of a knife edge existed 2o 3first be worn away than cBN particle, therefore coming off of cBN particle becomes remarkable, cannot maintain the sharpness of point of a knife, and fracture resistance also declines, therefore Al 2o 3the average coated thickness of film is preferably set to less than 1/2 of the average grain diameter of cBN particle.
For the Al of cBN particle surface 2o 3the coated uniformity of film, can confirm by carrying out SEM (scanning electron microscope) or TEM (transmission electron microscope) observation.
In cBN instrument of the present invention, cBN particle is by Al 2o 3film is coated with, therefore the directly contact each other of cBN particle reduces, can by reliably in cBN agglomerated material, keep securely, but when carrying out graphical analysis based on the SEM image obtained to be observed the cross section of cBN sintered body by scanning electron microscope (Scanning Electron Microscopy:SEM), cBN particle contacts with each other, in graphical analysis, using the aggregation of cBN particle that processes as 1 cBN particle as cBN population, in this cBN population, the cBN population with the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size) relative to cBN particle the gross area shared by total area ratio be necessary to be greater than 0.10 and below 0.35.
CBN particle as raw material is not the aggregate of single particle, but there is a certain size distribution, when therefore graphical analysis being carried out based on SEM image in the cross section of cBN raw meal, the cBN particle with the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size) is involved in advance, and comprise at most 0.10 of the cBN particle gross area, therefore by under be defined as 0.10.
The cBN population with the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size) relative to cBN particle the gross area shared by total area ratio be greater than 0.35 time, the ratio that cBN particle is in direct contact with one another increases, can not increase by the combined cBN particle fully kept mutually, therefore in high load capacity machining, easy generation defect, its result, life tools also shorten, therefore not preferred.
At this, the average grain diameter of cBN particle can be obtained as follows.
For the section structure of cBN sintered body, by SEM, cBN tissue of sintered body is observed, obtain secondary electron image.Selected the cBN particle fraction in obtained image by image procossing, and obtain the maximum length of each particle obtained by graphical analysis, it can be used as the diameter of each particle to calculate the volume of each particle.Volume calculates by being assumed to be desirable spheroid.
At this, when being selected the cBN particle fraction in image by image procossing, in order to clearly judge cBN particle and in conjunction with phase, image utilizes 0 represents black, represent that the artwork master of 256 grades of white gray scales represents with 255, use the pixel value of cBN particle fraction to become the image of the pixel value of more than 2 with the ratio of the pixel value combining part mutually, the mode becoming black with cBN particle carries out binary conversion treatment.
As the region of the pixel value for obtaining cBN particle fraction and combination phase part, preferably be set to the region of 0.5 μm × about 0.5 μm, obtained by the mean value in this region, and the average value at least obtained from different 3 positions in same image is set to respective pixel value.
In addition, after binary conversion treatment, can not utilize as the watershed (watershed) of one of process, such as image processing operations that the part that cBN particle contacts with each other is separated will be thought, will think that the cBN particle of contact is separated each other.
Particle analysis is carried out to the part (black part) being equivalent to cBN particle in the image obtained after binary conversion treatment, using the maximum length of calculated maximum length as each particle, this diameter as each particle is calculated the volume of each particle.Volume calculates by being assumed to be desirable spheroid.When carrying out particle analysis, using in advance by the scale value that SEM learns, setting the length (μm) of every 1 pixel.Further, remove noise when carrying out particle analysis, the region that therefore diameter is less than 0.02 μm does not calculate as particle.
The median particle diameter in the accumulative % of volume and the distribution curve of diameter is obtained, using at least by the average grain diameter (μm) of the mean value obtained in 3 images as cBN particle by 1 image.As the viewing area for image procossing, when the average grain diameter of cBN particle is 3 μm, the field of view of preferably 15 μm × about 15 μm.
Further, the area of cBN particle and the total area of cBN population relative to cBN particle the gross area shared by ratio can obtain as follows.
For the section structure of cBN sintered body, by SEM, cBN tissue of sintered body is observed, obtain secondary electron image.At this, in order to clearly judge cBN particle and in conjunction with phase, image utilizes 0 represents black, represent that the artwork master of 256 grades of white gray scales represents with 255, use the pixel value of cBN particle fraction to become the image of the pixel value of more than 2 with the ratio of the pixel value combining part mutually, the mode becoming black with cBN particle carries out binary conversion treatment.
As the region of the pixel value for obtaining cBN particle fraction and combination phase part, preferably be set to the region of 0.5 μm × about 0.5 μm, obtained by the mean value in this region, and the average value at least obtained from different 3 positions in same image is set to respective pixel value.
The area of the cBN particle fraction (black part) in obtained image is calculated, as the gross area of cBN particle by image procossing.Now, use in advance by the scale value that SEM learns, set the length (μm) of every 1 pixel.Then, graphical analysis is utilized to obtain the area of each cBN particle in image.
Particle analysis is carried out to the part (black part) being equivalent to cBN particle in the image obtained after binary conversion treatment, and calculates each region area being identified as particle.In addition, after binary conversion treatment, can not utilize as the watershed (watershed) of one of process, such as image processing operations that the part that cBN particle contacts with each other is separated will be thought, will think that the cBN particle of contact is separated each other.Further, remove noise when carrying out particle analysis, the region that therefore diameter can not be less than 0.02 μm calculates as particle.
By the area of calculated each cBN particle, the value that the total area with the cBN population of the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size) obtains divided by the gross area of cBN particle, for there is the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size) cBN population shared by total area ratio.
At this, the average area of cBN particle refers to the area obtained based on cBN average grain diameter, and area calculates by being assumed to be desirable circle.
By 1 image, the value that the total area obtaining the cBN population of the area of 2.5 times that are greater than cBN particle average area obtains divided by the gross area of cBN particle, using the mean value at least obtained by 3 images as the total area ratio shared by the cBN population with the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size).As the viewing area for image procossing, when the average grain diameter of cBN particle is 3 μm, the field of view of preferably 15 μm × about 15 μm.
In the present invention, by will by Al 2o 3cBN particle, the Al on the surface of the coated cBN particle of film 2o 3and Al is as primary raw material, and under common high pressure high temperature condition, carry out sintering to make cBN agglomerated material, and by its soldered joint in the mother metal be made up of carbide alloy, produce cBN instrument of the present invention thus.For the surface of the cBN particle of the cBN sintered body of cBN instrument of the present invention by Al 2o 3coated, and, the total area ratio of cBN population is set to and is greater than 0.1 and less than 0.35, thus, even if improve the cBN particle in cBN sintered body containing proportional, when the instrument of being used as, there is not the anxiety of defect yet.When cBN particle in cBN sintered body shared containing proportional be less than 50 volume % time, in sintered body, hardness of matter is less, and when the instrument of being used as, fracture resistance declines.On the other hand, if more than 85 volume %, although cBN particle is by Al 2o 3the contact each other of the coated and cBN particle of film reduces, but can generate in sintered body by adjacent coated after Al 2o 3film each other cannot the space becoming crackle starting point of landfill, and fracture resistance declines.In the present invention, 50 ~ 85 volume % can be set to shared in cBN sintered body for cBN particle containing proportional, be preferably 70 ~ 85 volume %.
Shared containing proportional in cBN sintered body about cBN particle, by SEM, the section structure of cBN sintered body is observed, the cBN particle fraction in obtained secondary electron image is selected by image procossing, and go out the area shared by cBN particle by image analysis calculation, obtain the ratio shared by cBN particle in 1 image, the mean value of the value obtained by process at least 3 images is proportional as containing of cBN particle.As the viewing area for image procossing, when the average grain diameter of cBN particle is 3 μm, the field of view of preferably 15 μm × about 15 μm.

At this, the average area of cBN particle refers to the area obtained based on cBN average grain diameter, and area calculates by being assumed to be desirable circle.
By 1 image, obtain the cBN particle of the area of 2.5 times being greater than average cBN particle area (namely, there is the cBN population of the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size)) the value that obtains divided by the gross area of cBN particle of total area, using the mean value at least obtained by 3 images as the total area ratio shared by the cBN population with the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size).Viewing area for image procossing is 15 μm × 15 μm.
These values are shown in table 2, table 4.
For above-mentioned cBN instrument 1 ~ 13 of the present invention and comparative example cBN instrument 1 ~ 13, under following machining condition A, implement machining test, measure through the cutting time: the crater depth after 10 minutes, and observation there is N/D.Pass through
" machining condition A "
Workpiece: FC25 axially have 2 grooves φ 200mm pole,
Cutting speed: 150m/min,
Feed speed: 0.6mm/rev,
Cutting depth: 2.0mm
Condition under, the dry type interrupted cut processing experiment of periphery processing, after confirming interrupted number of times 2500 times, point of a knife has N/D.
In addition, by light microscope, point of a knife is confirmed.
The measurement result that machining is tested is shown in table 5.
[table 5]
Especially, be clearly known as below by the result described in table 2,4,5: cBN instrument 1 ~ 13 of the present invention passes through by Al 2o 3the surface of film coating cBN particle prevents cBN particle from contacting with each other, thus the total area ratio with the cBN population of the area of 2.5 times being greater than the cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size) obtained from the graphical analysis of tissue of sintered body is less, for being greater than 0.1 and less than 0.35, therefore act in the machining of cutting edge at high load capacity, cBN particle keeps mutually securely by combining, and therefore plays excellent fracture resistance.
In contrast, comparative example cBN instrument 1 ~ 13, at the uncoated Al of cBN particle surface 2o 3film, or the total area ratio of the cBN population with the area of 2.5 times being greater than cBN particle average area (can be calculated by cBN average particle size) is greater than 0.35, and therefore fracture resistance is poor.
Utilizability in industry
As mentioned above, the resistance to deficient damage of cBN instrument of the present invention is excellent, can tackle the high performance of cutting apparatus and the saving labourization of machining and energy-saving, even cost degradation very satisfactorily.
