  • Sintered polycrystalline cubic boron nitride body
    Patent number: 10308559
    Abstract: A sintered polycrystalline body and a method of forming the sintered polycrystalline body are disclosed. The sintered polycrystalline body comprises a plurality of particles cubic boron nitride dispersed in a matrix. The matrix includes materials selected from compounds of any of titanium and aluminium. The polycrystalline body further comprises 0.1 to 5.0 volume % of lubricating chalcogenide particles dispersed in the matrix. The chalcogenide particles have a coefficient of friction of less than 0.1 with respect to a workpiece material. Preferably sulfide particles are used as lubricant. Preferably 30-70 vol.-% cBN is contained. Sintering takes place at 1100-1600° C. and 4-8 GPa.

  • OPTICAL COATING
    Publication number: 20120111400
    Abstract: An optical coating, comprising porous particles, or formed from porous precursor particles. The average thickness of the coating is in the range of from 75 to 400 nm, and the surface roughness of the coating is in the range of from 2 to 300 nm. This coating provides broadband antireflective properties across the visible and near infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
