Description
本発明は、ダイヤモンド粒子が炭化ホウ素を介して固結一体化されたダイヤモンド質複合材、及びその製造方法に関する。本発明は特に、硬度及び耐熱性に優れた切削工具要素および研磨研削材として鉄系金属材を始め多様な材種の加工に適用可能で、また幅広い分野の切削，研削・研磨加工に使用可能なダイヤモンド集合体及びその製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a diamond composite material in which diamond particles are consolidated and integrated via boron carbide, and a method for producing the same. The present invention is particularly applicable to machining of various types of materials including ferrous metal materials as cutting tool elements and abrasive grinding materials with excellent hardness and heat resistance, and can be used for cutting, grinding and polishing in a wide range of fields. The present invention relates to a diamond aggregate and a method for producing the same.
硬度が高く耐摩耗性に優れた研磨材である粉状ダイヤモンドを結合させた焼結体が切削工具のチップ等の製作に利用されてきた。このような焼結体はダイヤモンド多結晶体(PCD)とも呼ばれ、一般には超高圧高温下でコバルト(Ｃo)を溶融してダイヤモンド粉末間に流入させ、融液相を介してダイヤモンド粉末を一体化したもので、工具材として広く利用されている。 A sintered body bonded with powdered diamond, which is an abrasive having high hardness and excellent wear resistance, has been used for manufacturing chips and the like of cutting tools. Such a sintered body is also called a diamond polycrystal (PCD). Generally, cobalt (Co) is melted and flown between diamond powders under high pressure and high temperature, and the diamond powder is integrated through a melt phase. It has been widely used as a tool material.
しかしながら結合材のコバルトは700℃位からダイヤモンドをグラファイト化させる触媒として作用し、温度上昇に伴ってこの作用が顕著になるので、切削時の発熱による高温条件下での使用が困難という耐熱性の問題があった。また、ダイヤモンド自体、鉄との反応性があるという問題もある。従ってダイヤモンドに内包されるこれらの問題を克服し、極めて硬いダイヤモンドの特性が発揮できる切削チップ材として、鉄系材質の切削にも適用可能なダイヤモンド質塊体の開発が望まれている。 However, the binder cobalt acts as a catalyst for graphitizing diamond from around 700 ° C, and this effect becomes significant as the temperature rises, making it difficult to use under high temperature conditions due to heat generation during cutting. There was a problem. Another problem is that diamond itself is reactive with iron. Therefore, it is desired to develop a diamond mass that can be applied to the cutting of ferrous materials as a cutting tip material that can overcome these problems contained in diamond and exhibit the characteristics of extremely hard diamond.
コバルトを使用せずにダイヤモンド多結晶体(塊体)を調製する方法は公知である。例えば結合材としてコバルトに代えてアルカリ土類炭酸塩(特許文献１)、炭化ホウ素(特許文献２)を用いる方法、結合材を用いないで、ダイヤモンドが直接結合した一体品とする方法(特許文献３)が知られている。 A method for preparing a polycrystalline diamond (agglomerate) without using cobalt is known. For example, a method of using alkaline earth carbonate (Patent Document 1) and boron carbide (Patent Document 2) instead of cobalt as a binding material, or a method of making a diamond directly bonded without using a binding material (Patent Document) 3) is known.
特許文献１の方法においては、ダイヤモンド粉末に導電性付与のためのドーピング材としてボロン粉末0.5〜15wt%と、焼結体の結合相を形成する成分としてMg、Ca等の「アルカリ土類炭酸塩」粉末とが混合添加され、第一段階でボロンの拡散によるダイヤモンド粉末への導電性付与、第二段階で結合相のダイヤモンド粉末粒子間隙への溶浸充填によって導電性のダイヤモンド焼結体が得られている。これらの処理には超高圧高温が必要で、特に第二段階は6.0〜9.0GPa、1600〜2500℃で行われている。 In the method of Patent Document 1, boron powder 0.5 to 15 wt% as a doping material for imparting conductivity to diamond powder, and “alkaline earth carbonates such as Mg and Ca as components for forming the binder phase of the sintered body”. The powder is mixed and added. In the first stage, conductivity is imparted to the diamond powder by the diffusion of boron, and in the second stage, the conductive phase is sintered by filling the gap between the diamond powder particles in the binder phase. It has been. These treatments require ultra-high pressure and high temperature. In particular, the second stage is performed at 6.0 to 9.0 GPa and 1600 to 2500 ° C.
特許文献２の方法においては溶融温度2450℃の炭化ホウ素を溶融乃至半溶融状態でダイヤモンドの粒子間へ浸透させる操作が必要であり、微粉末化による焼結温度の低下を見込んでも2000℃程度の加熱を必要とし、この温度においてダイヤモンドを熱力学的に安定な状態に保つには7GPa以上の超高圧力維持が必要で、焼結装置の負担がさらに大きくなる。 In the method of Patent Document 2, it is necessary to allow boron carbide having a melting temperature of 2450 ° C. to penetrate between the diamond particles in a molten or semi-molten state. Heating is required, and in order to keep the diamond thermodynamically stable at this temperature, it is necessary to maintain an ultrahigh pressure of 7 GPa or more, which further increases the burden on the sintering apparatus.
特許文献３の方法はグラファイトからダイヤモンドへの直接変換と焼結とを同時に実施することで、ダイヤモンドのみで構成されたタフな焼結体が得られるが、高温での反応においてダイヤモンドの熱力学的安定性を確保するために、8GPa以上の更なる超高圧力維持が必要とされる。 In the method of Patent Document 3, a tough sintered body composed only of diamond can be obtained by simultaneously performing direct conversion from graphite to diamond and sintering. However, the thermodynamics of diamond in a reaction at a high temperature. In order to ensure stability, it is necessary to maintain an extra high pressure of 8 GPa or more.
本発明は、ダイヤモンド粒子が添加したホウ素との反応で生じた炭化ホウ素を介して強固に結合一体化したと解される複合材に関するものである。
本発明は特に、鉄を含むすべての材料の加工への適用が可能であり、結合材によるグラファイト化への相転換促進も生じず、さらに現在一般的なコバルト系ダイヤモンド焼結体(ＰＣＤ)製造条件で製作が可能なダイヤモンド集合体を提供することを課題とする。
The present invention relates to a composite material that is understood to be firmly bonded and integrated through boron carbide produced by reaction with boron added by diamond particles.
In particular, the present invention can be applied to the processing of all materials including iron, does not cause the phase conversion to be graphitized by the binder, and further produces a general cobalt-based diamond sintered body (PCD). It is an object to provide a diamond aggregate that can be manufactured under conditions.
本発明は切削工具等の素材として、或いは研磨・研削砥粒の原料として好適な高硬度ダイヤモンド集合体の作成において、結合材として、ダイヤモンドのグラファイト化への触媒作用を持つ従来のコバルト等の鉄系金属や、高融点物質であるボロンカーバイドに代えてホウ素を用いることにより、各種鋼材等、鉄系材料加工への利用が可能なダイヤモンド−ホウ素複合集合体を提供するものである。 The present invention is a conventional iron such as cobalt having a catalytic action for graphitization of diamond as a binder in the production of a high-hardness diamond aggregate suitable as a material for a cutting tool or as a raw material for polishing and grinding abrasive grains. The present invention provides a diamond-boron composite aggregate that can be used for processing iron-based materials such as various steel materials by using boron instead of boron carbide, which is a high-melting-point material or boron carbide.
本発明は、ダイヤモンド粒子を単体の(金属)ホウ素粉末と密に混合して加圧下での加熱操作に供し、その際にダイヤモンド粒子の表面に形成された(in situ formed)炭化ホウ素層を結合材として一体化したものである。ダイヤモンド粒子の表面のホウ化物層はダイヤモンドの酸素との接触を断つ保護層として作用するため、本発明の処理には必ずしもダイヤモンドが熱力学的に安定な超高圧を必要としない。即ち従来のダイヤモンド焼結体に匹敵する硬さを有する複合材が、より低圧領域でも製作可能という、利点が達成される。 In the present invention, diamond particles are intimately mixed with a single (metal) boron powder and subjected to a heating operation under pressure, in which a boron carbide layer formed in situ on the surface of the diamond particles is bonded. It is integrated as a material. Since the boride layer on the surface of the diamond particles acts as a protective layer that breaks contact of diamond with oxygen, the treatment of the present invention does not necessarily require an ultrahigh pressure at which diamond is thermodynamically stable. That is, an advantage is achieved that a composite material having a hardness comparable to that of a conventional diamond sintered body can be manufactured even in a lower pressure region.
ダイヤモンド粒子を、予め形成された(preformed)炭化ホウ素Ｂ４Ｃで結合する試みは前記のとおり公知である。また導電性付与のドープ材としてのホウ素粉末を結合材粉末と混合してダイヤモンド粒子と共に超高圧高温下で加圧加熱処理する方法も公知である。しかしこの例においては前記のように結合相成分としてＭg、Ｃa、Ｓr、Ｂaの炭酸塩やこれらの複合炭酸塩が使用され、これらはダイヤモンド粒子間隙中に溶浸することによって焼結体が製造されており、多数のダイヤモンド粒子を一体化・塊体とする際に金属ホウ素を結合材として用いダイヤモンド粒子と混合処理した例は見られない。 Attempts to bond diamond particles with preformed boron carbide B 4 C are known as described above. Also known is a method in which boron powder as a doping material imparting conductivity is mixed with a binder powder and subjected to pressure and heat treatment together with diamond particles at an ultrahigh pressure and high temperature. In this example, however, carbonates of Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba and complex carbonates thereof are used as binder phase components as described above, and these are infiltrated into the diamond particle gaps to produce a sintered body. However, when a large number of diamond particles are integrated and agglomerated, there is no example in which metallic boron is used as a binder and mixed with diamond particles.
ダイヤモンド(炭素)とホウ素との反応によって炭化ホウ素を形成する反応は発熱反応であることから、加熱加圧操作において両成分の界面では、周囲からの加熱温度に加えてホウ化物形成反応による反応熱が生じることにより、局部的に生成ホウ化物の融点を超える箇所も出現し、緻密化が促進されると考えられる。この反応熱を利用することにより、加熱に必要なエネルギーの消費量を軽減することが出来る。 Since the reaction to form boron carbide by the reaction of diamond (carbon) and boron is an exothermic reaction, at the interface between both components in the heating and pressurizing operation, the heat of reaction due to the boride formation reaction in addition to the heating temperature from the surroundings. As a result of this, a part exceeding the melting point of the product boride appears locally, and it is considered that densification is promoted. By using this reaction heat, the energy consumption required for heating can be reduced.
炭化ホウ素の形成は固相における相互拡散でも生じるが、加熱温度の上昇に伴ってより速やかに進行する。但し界面に形成されたＢ４Ｃ層は相互拡散の障壁になり、新たなＢ４Ｃ層の形成速度が低下すると考えられ、実際通常の加熱操作においてダイヤモンドの全量が炭化ホウ素に転化する現象は認められていない。 Boron carbide formation also occurs by interdiffusion in the solid phase, but proceeds more rapidly with increasing heating temperature. However, the B 4 C layer formed at the interface becomes a barrier for interdiffusion, and the formation rate of the new B 4 C layer is considered to decrease. In fact, the phenomenon that the total amount of diamond is converted into boron carbide in the normal heating operation is Not allowed.
本発明においてはまた、少量の金属、特に遷移金属を添加することにより、金属ホウ化物形成時の大きな反応熱を利用した緻密化と、金属ホウ化物による集合体への靭性付与を行うこともできる。この場合には添加した金属とダイヤモンドとの間で金属炭化物の形成も生じる。この反応も大きな発熱を伴い、生成物の緻密化と化学結合による相互の一体化が促進される。 In the present invention, by adding a small amount of metal, particularly a transition metal, it is also possible to perform densification using a large reaction heat at the time of metal boride formation and to impart toughness to the aggregate by the metal boride. . In this case, metal carbide is also formed between the added metal and diamond. This reaction is also accompanied by a large exotherm, which promotes densification of the product and mutual integration by chemical bonding.

本発明の炭化ホウ素結合ダイヤモンド基複合材は、特にダイヤモンド粒子と共に出発物質として不定形ホウ素を用い、ダイヤモンド粒子を炭化ホウ素及びホウ素を結合材として一体化結合することにより、ダイヤモンド基の硬質複合材が、従来のＢ4Ｃ結合による焼結体よりも低温で製造可能となる、という優れた効果を奏する。 The boron carbide-bonded diamond matrix composite of the present invention is obtained by using amorphous boron as a starting material together with diamond particles, and by integrally bonding diamond particles with boron carbide and boron as a binder, Thus, it has an excellent effect that it can be manufactured at a lower temperature than a conventional sintered body by B 4 C bonding.
集合体としての硬さは結合材の硬さにも依存する。本発明においてはダイヤモンド粒子の表面がホウ素と接触し、両者の反応によって炭化ホウ素の層が形成されることにより、ホウ素との間に強い結合力が発生していると考えることができる。炭化ホウ素はバルク材ではビッカース硬さは33ＧＰa(約3370VHN)とされているが、本発明における炭化ホウ素層の厚さはnmオーダーまたはそれ以下の薄膜であることから、本発明品における炭化ホウ素の影響は限定的である。 The hardness of the aggregate depends on the hardness of the binder. In the present invention, it can be considered that the surface of the diamond particles is in contact with boron, and a boron carbide layer is formed by the reaction between the two, thereby generating a strong bonding force with boron. Boron carbide has a bulk material with a Vickers hardness of 33 GPa (about 3370 VHN), but the thickness of the boron carbide layer in the present invention is a thin film of the order of nm or less. The impact is limited.
本発明の複合材においてはまた、ダイヤモンド粒子間にホウ素が存在する可能性があるが、標準状態において安定なβ-ホウ素が45GPa(約4590VHN)の硬さを有しており、硬さの面では焼結バインダーを用いたｃＢＮ(立方晶窒化硼素)焼結体を凌ぐレベルである。従ってダイヤモンド粒子の結合材としてホウ素由来の硬質材料を用いる本発明品は、ダイヤモンドに近い硬さを有する複合材として、鉄系材料を含むすべての材料の切削加工工具素材としての、広い用途が期待される。 In the composite material of the present invention, boron may exist between the diamond particles, but β-boron stable in the standard state has a hardness of 45 GPa (about 4590 VHN), and the hardness surface Then, it is a level that surpasses a cBN (cubic boron nitride) sintered body using a sintered binder. Therefore, the product of the present invention using a hard material derived from boron as a binder for diamond particles is expected to be widely used as a cutting tool material for all materials including iron-based materials as a composite material having hardness close to diamond. Is done.
さらに、本発明のダイヤモンド複合材は、従来のダイヤモンド焼結体とは異なり、ダイヤモンドのグラファイト化への相転換を促進するコバルト等の鉄系金属を含まない、または微量に含んでいてもダイヤモンドへの影響が殆どないことから、耐熱性の高いダイヤモンド集合体となる。
なお、本発明の複合材は、その構造または特性により直接特定することが、凡そ実際的でないものである。
Furthermore, unlike the conventional diamond sintered body, the diamond composite material of the present invention does not contain iron-based metals such as cobalt, which promote the phase conversion of diamond to graphitization, or even contains a trace amount. Therefore, a diamond aggregate with high heat resistance is obtained.
Note that it is not practical to specify the composite material of the present invention directly by its structure or characteristics.
本発明のダイヤモンド−ホウ素複合体は、ダイヤモンド粒子を粉末状の結晶質または不定形またはこれらの混在したホウ素と混合し、この混合粉末を、加圧状態での高温下に置く加圧・加熱処理によって、より効率よく得られる。加圧方法として最も好ましいのはダイヤモンド焼結体製造用の超高圧高温装置であって、1450℃以上、5GPa以上の温度、圧力の使用が好ましい。 In the diamond-boron composite of the present invention, diamond particles are mixed with powdered crystalline or amorphous or mixed boron, and the mixed powder is subjected to pressure and heat treatment under high pressure in a pressurized state. Can be obtained more efficiently. The most preferable pressurizing method is an ultra-high pressure and high temperature apparatus for producing a diamond sintered body, and it is preferable to use a temperature and pressure of 1450 ° C. or higher and 5 GPa or higher.
上記の圧力条件は、長時間の高温付与を行った場合にも、ダイヤモンドのグラファイト化を効果的に防止してダイヤモンドが熱力学的に安定相として存在できる環境を実現するための要件である。 The above pressure condition is a requirement for realizing an environment in which diamond can exist as a thermodynamically stable phase by effectively preventing the graphitization of diamond even when applied at a high temperature for a long time.
但し、超高圧力の付与は必須ではない。ダイヤモンドとホウ素との反応により、ダイヤモンド粒子表面にＢ4Ｃ層が形成される反応は速く、グラファイト化への誘導時間内のごく短時間で完了することが予期される。一方、誘導時間は還元雰囲気中では長くなることが認められていることから、ダイヤモンドのグラファイト化への誘導時間内に実質的な反応完了が可能な加熱方法を用いる場合には、ＨＩＰ、ホットプレス、放電プラズマ焼結、あるいは燃焼合成技術も用いることができる。 However, application of ultra high pressure is not essential. Due to the reaction between diamond and boron, the reaction in which the B 4 C layer is formed on the diamond particle surface is fast and is expected to be completed in a very short time within the induction time for graphitization. On the other hand, since the induction time is recognized to be long in a reducing atmosphere, when using a heating method capable of substantially completing the reaction within the induction time for graphitization of diamond, HIP, hot press Also, discharge plasma sintering or combustion synthesis techniques can be used.
従って本発明のダイヤモンド基複合材の製造には、既存の各種焼結装置を用いることができ、高性能切削、研削工具素材の大量生産が可能である。 Therefore, various existing sintering apparatuses can be used for manufacturing the diamond matrix composite of the present invention, and mass production of high-performance cutting and grinding tool materials is possible.
加熱操作を還元雰囲気内で実施するために、出発原料中に例えば水素化チタンなどの金属水素化物を添加することもできる。昇温の際に生じたガスによって出発原料が水素雰囲気に保たれ、反応によって生じる金属ホウ化物は、複合体の靭性、導電性などの物性に好ましい効果を生じる。 In order to carry out the heating operation in a reducing atmosphere, a metal hydride such as titanium hydride can be added to the starting material. The starting material is kept in a hydrogen atmosphere by the gas generated during the temperature rise, and the metal boride generated by the reaction has a favorable effect on the physical properties such as toughness and conductivity of the composite.
本発明のダイヤモンド基複合材は硬質材として様々な用途への利用が見込まれる。この際、特に切削工具、研磨・研削工具の用途を意図する場合には、結合材の靭性改善のために少量の金属成分の添加が有効である。このような靭性改善金属としてはＡl、Ｓi、Ｆe、Ｃo、Ｎi、Ｔi、Ｚr、Ｈf、Ｖ、Ｎb、Ｔa、Ｃr、Ｍo、Ｗが適し、これらの金属種は単独又は組み合わせて利用可能である。靭性改善金属の添加は得られる複合材の硬度を低下させることから、ダイヤモンドとホウ素とから成る出発材料に添加する際、好適な硬度を維持するために、出発材料の質量に対し外掛けで15%以下とすることが望ましい。 The diamond matrix composite of the present invention is expected to be used for various purposes as a hard material. In this case, particularly when intended for use as a cutting tool or a polishing / grinding tool, it is effective to add a small amount of a metal component in order to improve the toughness of the binder. Al, Si, Fe, Co, Ni, Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, and W are suitable as such toughness improving metals, and these metal species can be used alone or in combination. is there. The addition of the toughness improving metal reduces the hardness of the resulting composite, so when added to the starting material consisting of diamond and boron, it is scaled to the starting material mass to maintain a suitable hardness. It is desirable to make it below%.
前記の金属成分の添加は、放電加工等のために導電性を付与する場合にも有効に作用する。添加する金属成分の種類及び量は、個々の用途に応じて適宜選択決定される。さらにこれらの金属は使用目的に合わせて炭化物、窒化物或いはホウ化物等、化合物の形で添加することも可能である。 The addition of the metal component also works effectively when imparting conductivity for electrical discharge machining or the like. The kind and amount of the metal component to be added are appropriately selected and determined according to each application. Furthermore, these metals can be added in the form of a compound such as carbide, nitride or boride in accordance with the purpose of use.
一方、本発明において結合一体化されるダイヤモンド粒子としては、目的とする硬さに応じて100μmまで如何なる粒度のものも使用可能であるが、加工工具として必要な靭性を確保する観点からは20μm以下、特に1μm以下の粒子が好適である。 On the other hand, as the diamond particles bonded and integrated in the present invention, particles of any particle size up to 100 μm can be used depending on the target hardness, but from the viewpoint of ensuring the toughness required as a processing tool, it is 20 μm or less. Particularly, particles having a size of 1 μm or less are suitable.
本発明において複合材に含有されるホウ素は、ダイヤモンド粒子と接触して表面に炭化ホウ素層を形成すると解される。このためホウ素の量は複合材中に一様に分布しダイヤモンド粒子成分の全表面と接触させるのに十分な量を含有させることが好ましいが、一方生成される複合材中にホウ素相が過剰に存在すると複合材の靭性が低下することになる。従って複合材に含有されるホウ素の量は用いるダイヤモンドの粒度にもよるが、全体の0.5％以上40％以下が好適である。 It is understood that boron contained in the composite material in the present invention forms a boron carbide layer on the surface in contact with diamond particles. For this reason, it is preferable that the amount of boron be uniformly distributed in the composite material and contained in an amount sufficient to make contact with the entire surface of the diamond particle component, while the composite material produced has an excess of boron phase. If present, the toughness of the composite will be reduced. Therefore, although the amount of boron contained in the composite material depends on the particle size of the diamond used, it is preferably 0.5% to 40% of the total.
これまでに単体のホウ素をダイヤモンド粒子と組合せ、加熱操作によってその場で形成された炭化ホウ素によってダイヤモンド粒子を結合した複合材は知られていない。本願発明においては、効果的な結合材の有効な利用によってきわめて高い硬度と共に、またダイヤモンド粒子のグラファイトへの相転移を来さない高い耐熱性も同時に達成された、高性能の複合体が達成される。 So far, there is no known composite material in which a single boron is combined with diamond particles and the diamond particles are bonded by boron carbide formed in situ by a heating operation. In the present invention, a high-performance composite is achieved that has achieved both extremely high hardness by effective use of an effective binder, and at the same time high heat resistance that does not cause a phase transition of diamond particles to graphite. The
耐熱性の発現は、ダイヤモンド粒子表面において、結合した炭化ホウ素を含むホウ化物から転じた酸化ホウ素膜がダイヤモンド粒子表面を覆い、ダイヤモンドが酸素に触れることによるグラファイト化の開始が阻止されることによる、とも説明されている。 The expression of heat resistance is due to the fact that on the diamond particle surface, a boron oxide film converted from a boride containing bonded boron carbide covers the diamond particle surface, and the start of graphitization due to contact of diamond with oxygen is prevented. Both are explained.
本発明によるダイヤモンド基複合材は、従来の超砥粒焼結体と同様に、反応装置から取出し未切断の原複合材塊体として所定の形状に整えられ、さらにレーザー切断や放電切断により所要形状に切断して、或いは未切断のまま各種切削工具ブランクや工具要素として利用可能である。ここで塊体とは、焼結体調製装置から回収され、混在物を除去して単離された工具要素に切断される前の大断面複合材塊体を指す。 Like the conventional superabrasive sintered body, the diamond-based composite material according to the present invention is taken out from the reaction apparatus and arranged into a predetermined shape as an uncut raw composite material mass, and further, the required shape is obtained by laser cutting or electric discharge cutting. Can be used as various cutting tool blanks or tool elements. Here, the lump refers to a large cross-section composite lump that has been recovered from the sintered body preparation device and has been removed into a tool element that has been isolated by removing the inclusions.
本発明の複合体はまた、高強度の研削砥粒、特に通常の高温・高圧合成技術では製作が困難な粒径0.5mm以上の研磨研削工具用の高硬度砥粒を製造するための原料としても用いることができる。即ち一旦直径数十mmの大断面の複合材塊体を調製した後、破砕して篩い分け整粒することにより、呼称#40よりも粗いダイヤモンド―ホウ素複合材からなるダイヤモンド多結晶粒子が容易に得られる。ホウ素はダイヤモンド、炭化ホウ素に比して脆いので、複合材中に未反応の形で残留しているホウ素の箇所で破断する傾向がある。 The composite of the present invention is also used as a raw material for producing high-strength abrasive grains, particularly high-hardness abrasive grains for abrasive grinding tools having a grain size of 0.5 mm or more, which are difficult to produce by ordinary high-temperature / high-pressure synthesis technology. Can also be used. In other words, once a composite mass having a large cross section with a diameter of several tens of millimeters is prepared, it is crushed and sieved, and diamond polycrystalline particles made of a diamond-boron composite material coarser than the name # 40 can be easily obtained. can get. Since boron is more brittle than diamond and boron carbide, there is a tendency to break at the location of boron remaining in an unreacted form in the composite.
得られた多結晶質集合粒子はcＢＮ砥粒に匹敵する硬さであることから、重研削に耐える大粒の安価な研削砥粒として、コバルトボンド、超硬合金ボンド、あるいはセラミックスボンドの掘削工具として岩盤掘削に用いたり、鉄筋コンクリート構造物の切断や穿孔のための工具に用いることができる。ダイヤモンド粒子表面を覆っている炭化ホウ素は工具製作のための上記各種ボンド剤と容易に化合物を生じるので、各ボンド剤による砥粒保持力がダイヤモンド単体を用いた工具に比して向上する傾向が認められる。 Since the obtained polycrystalline aggregate particles have hardness comparable to cBN abrasive grains, they are used as drilling tools for cobalt bonds, cemented carbide bonds, or ceramic bonds, as large, inexpensive abrasive grains that can withstand heavy grinding. It can be used for rock excavation and as a tool for cutting and drilling reinforced concrete structures. Since boron carbide covering the surface of diamond particles easily forms compounds with the above various bond agents for tool manufacture, the abrasive grain retention by each bond agent tends to improve compared to tools using diamond alone. Is recognized.
特にメタルボンド砥石の製作の際にＮi、Ｃoが含まれるボンド剤を用いてこの砥粒を固定すると、1000℃付近の砥石の加熱成型の段階で、砥粒はＢ４Ｃ層や表面に残留しているホウ素とボンド剤金属とによって生じる金属ホウ化物を介して、化学結合によりボンド剤金属中に固定される。即ちダイヤモンド・炭化ホウ素・金属ホウ化物・ボンド剤金属がそれぞれ化学結合によって連続した組織となる。 In particular, when this abrasive grain is fixed by using a bonding agent containing Ni and Co during the manufacture of a metal bond grinding stone, the abrasive grain remains on the B 4 C layer or on the surface at the stage of heat molding of the grinding stone near 1000 ° C. It is fixed in the bond metal by a chemical bond via a metal boride generated by the boron and the bond metal. That is, diamond, boron carbide, metal boride, and bond agent metal each have a continuous structure by chemical bonding.
一方、ミクロンサイズにまで粉砕した多結晶質集合粒子をコバルトで結合した複合材は、超硬合金において炭化タングステン粒子をダイヤモンド粒子で置換した構造となり、ダイヤモンド粒子は表面の炭化ホウ素層を介してコバルトと化学結合していることから、超硬合金よりも硬く、超硬合金と同等の抗折力を有する切削、旋削工具として用いることができる。 On the other hand, a composite material in which polycrystalline aggregate particles pulverized to micron size are bonded with cobalt has a structure in which tungsten carbide particles are replaced with diamond particles in a cemented carbide, and the diamond particles are cobalt via a boron carbide layer on the surface. Therefore, it can be used as a cutting or turning tool that is harder than cemented carbide and has the same bending strength as cemented carbide.
