The influence of detonation synthesis conditions on the surface characteristics of detonation nanodiamonds (pp. 29–35)

The influence of detonation synthesis conditions on the surface properties of detonation nanodiamonds is considered. It has been experimentally shown that the introduction of modifying elements into the charge armor and into the charge itself is a promising way to obtain an ensemble of detonation nanodiamond particles with predefined surface characteristics.

Engineering of the free volume of polymers in abrasive instrument composites (pp. 36–47)

The influence of synthetic diamond powder as a filler on the mechanical properties of polyhydroxophenylene containing copper in the form of clusters incorporated into the polymer network was studied. The interrelationship between dispersity and filler content with the characteristic of polymers – free volume – is shown. It has been proven that the retention of diamond grains in the composite depends on the dynamics of migration of free volume elements.

Key words: copper-containing polyhydroxophenylene, free volume, diamond powder, migration, instrumental stability.

The influence of technological parameters of deposition on the transparency distribution functions of Josephson junction barriers (pp. 48–56)

The charge transport in superconductor–insulator–superconductor junctions has been studied. The use of a superhard material – leucosapphire – as substrates to create Josephson junctions has made it possible for the first time to obtain a relationship between the technological parameters of the process of deposition of junction layers, the barrier structure and model parameters of charge transport in these junctions. The results of experimental studies of nanoscale structures created on the basis of thin films of MoRe superconductors have been considered. The charge transport in these heterostructures is analyzed within the framework of a modified theoretical model of multiple Andreev reflections taking into account the transparency distribution function of the barrier. This approach allows us to describe the evolution of the shape of real current-voltage characteristics of heterostructures depending on the technological conditions of their manufacture.

Key words: Josephson transition, Andreev reflection, superconductor, barrier transparencies distribution function, leuco sapphire.

Investigation of aeroabrasive wear of hot-pressed materials of the B4C–TiB2 system (pp. 57–64)

The results of studies of aeroabrasive wear of hot-pressed materials of the B4C–TiB2 system at different angles of attack of abrasive particles are presented. It is shown that the phase ratio in the composite significantly affects the wear resistance of materials. Educated ie 5–10% (by mass) of titanium diboride in the B4C composite provides high wear resistance due to an increase in the fracture toughness of KIc from 3.8 to 4.4–5.3 MPa·m1/2 while maintaining high hardness (HV = 20–23 GPa).

Key words: air abrasive wear, hot-pressed materials, B4C, TiB2, wear resistance.

Ion-plasma coating AlN–(TiCr)B2 for a cutting tool made of polycrystalline superhard material based on cubic boron nitride (pages 85–97)

The microstructure and oxidation kinetics of the surface layer of the AlN–(TiCr)B2 coating, obtained by the method of magnetron HF sputtering, in the processes of its formation and application in a tool made of polycrystalline superhard materials based on cubic boron nitride during processing of hardened ShX15 steel, were investigated. The coating is formed with the participation of a predominantly liquid phase. After processing by cutting, the formation of a two-layer tribofilm with a nano-sized polyoxide outer layer was found on the surface of the cutting plate. Using layer-by-layer Auger analysis, the phase composition of the tribofilm was estimated. Its outer nano-sized layer is a glass-like phase in the form of solid solutions of oxides based on Fe2O3–Al2O3, which plays the role of a solid lubricant. As the cutting speed increases, the rate of wear of the tool with the coating decreases compared to the tool without the coating.

Key words: cutting tool, ion-plasma coating, composite ceramics, tribofilm, wear resistance.
