Influence of high sintering pressure on the microhardness and wear resistance of diamond powder and silicon carbide-based composites

The work reported on here involved the development of several samples of "diamond-SiC" composite produced under sintering pressures of up to 9.0 GPa at temperatures of up to 1973 7K. The average size of the diamond micropowder crystals used was 40/28 µm. The sintering process was carried o...
