摘要
This article reviews studies undertaken on diamond cutting tools, with particular regard to the characteristics and performance of diamond/metal interfaces. The affinity of carbon to metals, as well as the wettability of diamond by molten metals, and the advantage of using coated diamonds under certain cutting conditions, are described. The choice of the appropriate metallic matrix in the field of both impregnated and brazed diamond tools is discussed in terms of the diamond/alloy interface, mechanical properties of the segment, diamond wear speed, and desired cutting performance. The effect of several principal elements and elements added in minor amounts to the metallic matrix is critically evaluated. Relevant open questions, related to the optimization of cutting tools performance, are outlined, with special attention directed toward the need for advanced fundamental studies on the functional link between work of adhesion and work of fracture.
