The search for novel, superhard materials

Abstract: The recent development in the field of superhard materials with Vickers hardness of ⩾40 GPa is reviewed. Two basic approaches are outlined including the intrinsic superhard materials, such as diamond, cubic boron nitride, C3N4, carbonitrides, etc. and extrinsic, nanostructured materials for which superhardness is achieved by an appropriate design of their microstructure. The theoretically predicted high hardness of C3N4 has not been experimentally documented so far. Ceramics made of cubic boron nitride prepare… Show more

“…Namun pembentukan lapisan TiAlN yang dikombinasikan dengan Si3N4 mampu mempertahankan kekerasan meskipun pada aplikasi suhu tinggi. Hal ini disebabkan oleh pengaturan sendiri (self-organization) struktur nano lapisan sebagai hasil dari segregasi fase secara termodinamika [7]. Selain itu lapisan TiAlN memiliki kestabilan terhadap oksidasi hingga suhu 800 0 C melalui pembentukan lapisan pasif oksida (AlTiO) [8] Senyawa nitrida keras lain adalah senyawa Si3N4 yang merupakan senyawa keramik dengan sifat mekanik, kestabilan kimia, dan konduktivitas termal yang baik khususnya pada suhu tinggi.…”
