  4. 2. Neutron scattering studies of hard metals

    Author : Ahmet Bahadir Yildiz; Peter Hedström; Annika Borgenstam; Joakim Odqvist; Daniele Mari; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hard metals; cemented carbides; small angle neutron scattering; neutron diffraction; in-situ characterization; grain coarsening; phase separation; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : Since their discovery about 100 years ago, tools made of hard metals have been the enablers of development in various areas: from drilling subway lines for more sustainable cities to the machining of complex next-generation airplane engine parts for reduced CO2 emissions. An increase in properties of hard metals thus leads to efficient operations with shorter lead-time, less environmental footprint, and reduced cost. READ MORE

  5. 3. Cutting Edge Titanium-based CVD Hard Coatings

    Author : Linus von Fieandt; Mats Boman; Ulf Jansson; Erik Lindahl; Tommy Larsson; Henrik Pedersen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CVD; Hard coatings; Ti C; N ; TiN;

    Abstract : Modern tools for metal cutting applications, such as turning or milling, are typically improved with a thin protective coating. Despite being only a few microns thick, the coating can increase the lifetime of the tool by more than 100 times compared to an uncoated tool. Two different types of techniques are normally used to deposit the coatings, i. READ MORE

  6. 4. Environmental, Resource and Health Impacts of Hard Materials

    Author : Anna Furberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MFA; life cycle assessment; material flow analysis; cemented carbide; disability-adjusted life years; LCA; DALY; hard metal; tire stud;

    Abstract : The importance of hard materials for society is illustrated by the fact that entire historical time periods have been named after the predominant hard material used at that time. In the latest century, the introduction of the hard material cemented tungsten carbide with cobalt (WC-Co) has contributed to the economic growth we have seen and this material is crucial for the manufacturing industry of today.
