Abstract

Abstract A TiCN-based cermet cutting insert superior in toughness with improved wear resistance includes a binding phase and at least two hard dispersion phases. One hard dispersion phases includes a core of TiCN while the other hard dispersion phases includes a core of a carbonitride solid solution of Ti and one of a V,Hf,Cr, Ta,Nb, Zr, W and Mo.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 112 words
A cutting insert made of a titanium carbonitride-based cermet comprising: from 5 to 30 volume percent of a binding phase consisting of at least one of a Ni and Co; from about 30 to about 90 volume percent of a first hard dispersion phase having at least one of a duplex and a triplex structure comprising a core of TiCN; and a balance of a second hard dispersion phase having at least one of a duplex and a triplex structure comprising a core of a carbonitride of a solid solution of Ti and at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ta, Nb, V, Hf, Zr, W, Mo and Cr.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 112 words
A cutting insert made of a titanium carbonitride-based cermet comprising: from 5 to 30 volume percent of a binding phase consisting of at least one of a Ni and Co; from about 30 to about 90 volume percent of a first hard dispersion phase having at least one of a duplex and a triplex structure comprising a core of TiCN; and a balance of a second hard dispersion phase having at least one of a duplex and a triplex structure comprising a core of a carbonitride of a solid solution of Ti and at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ta, Nb, V, Hf, Zr, W, Mo and Cr.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 46 words
The cutting insert of claim 1, wherein said binding phase further includes, by weight percent, from about 0 to about 40% of at least one of W, Mo, Cr, Hf, Zr, Ti, Ta, Nb and V and a balance of at least one Co and Ni.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 28 words
The cutting insert of claim 1, wherein said first hard dispersion phase being, in volume percent, from about 40 to about 70 percent of said hard dispersion phases.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 111 words
A cutting insert made of a titanium carbonitride-based cermet comprising: from about 5 to about 30 volume percent of a binding phase comprising at least one of Ni and Co; from about 30 to about 90 volume percent of a first hard dispersion phase having at least one of duplex and a triplex structure comprising a core of TiCN; and a balance of a second hard dispersion phase having at least one of a duplex and a triplex structure comprising a core of a carbonitride of a solid solution of Ti and at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ta, Nb, V, Hf, Zr, W, Mo and Cr.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 111 words
A cutting insert made of a titanium carbonitride-based cermet comprising: from about 5 to about 30 volume percent of a binding phase comprising at least one of Ni and Co; from about 30 to about 90 volume percent of a first hard dispersion phase having at least one of duplex and a triplex structure comprising a core of TiCN; and a balance of a second hard dispersion phase having at least one of a duplex and a triplex structure comprising a core of a carbonitride of a solid solution of Ti and at least one element selected from the group consisting of Ta, Nb, V, Hf, Zr, W, Mo and Cr.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 54 words
The cutting insert of claim 4, wherein said binding phase further includes, by weight percent, from about 0 to about 40 % of at least one element selected from the group consisting of W, Mo, Cr, Hf, Zr, Ti, Ta, Nb and V and a balance of at least one of Co and Ni.
