Mechanical properties of polycrystalline cBN sintered bodies synthesized by using submicron cubic boron nitride(cBN)powder and hexagonal BN(hBN)powder as starting materials under high pressure and hig
Since the invention of the dynamically driven Diamond Anvil Cell(dDAC)[1] there have been ongoing efforts to increase the compression speed as well as the single pressure jump range of the dDAC [2] te
Transition-metal borides(TMBs)have drawn much attention as a new kind of promising superhard materials for the strong covalent formed between metal atom and boron atom.
It has been found that the compression rate adds a new perspective to phase diagrams of matter.Modest compression rates can induce unexpected phase transition pathways,producing otherwise inaccessible
Last century has witnessed a wave of improvement of Tc. While such materials show promising superconductivity properties,they still face many problems,such as brittle feature,low hardness,high manufac
It has been verified that incorporation with secondary reinforcing particles(i.e.SiC)can effectively enhance the mechanical properties of Ti3SiC2,due to the high hardness,high temperature stability an
