Conclusions
-
1.
A study was made of the wear resistance and abrasive properties ofβ-B and transition metal borides in the microcutting of titanium and steel. It is shown that transition metal borides have good wear resistance in the grinding of titanium.
-
2.
β-B and transition metal borides are superior in abrasive power to corundum and carborundum abrasive materials, but are surpassed in this respect by synthetic diamond.
-
3.
In the grinding of VT1 titanium with tungsten boride abrasive wheels lower temperatures and smaller stresses are generated compared with wheels made of green silicon carbide and alumina.
