Abrasive properties of β-boron and transition metal borides

  • Published:
Soviet Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 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. 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. 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.
