If the amount of wear exceeded 2000 ⁇ m, the cutting test was stopped at that point. Table 5 shows the results.

It is resistant to damage factors such as defects caused by On the other hand, all of the comparative examples show chipping or a large amount of wear in a short cutting length, and their abrasive wear resistance is low and they are easily chipped, making it difficult to use them as excavating tools.
