Abstract:
In order to study the types and formation mechanism of metallization products on diamond abrasive surface by laser brazing, the first-principle density functional theory was used to calculate the common carbides. Laser brazing experiments of diamond abrasives were carried out by means of Ni-Cr alloy filler metal and optical fiber laser heat source. The structure and mechanical properties of Cr
3C
2 and Cr
7C
3 carbides, as well as surface microstructures and carbide species of diamond abrasives, were obtained. The results show that both Cr
3C
2 and Cr
7C
3 are metallic, and the latter is tougher. The thickness of metallurgical reaction layer between diamond abrasives and Ni-Cr alloy brazing filler metal obtained by laser brazing is about 4μm. The surface carbides of diamond abrasives are mainly Cr
3C
2. The surface carbides of diamond abrasives obtained by ultrasonic-assisted laser brazing are Cr
3C
2 and Cr
7C
3. Ultrasound high frequency vibration can promote interfacial reaction, and then produce Cr
7C
3 with low carbon content. The research results have guiding significance for the development of laser brazing diamond technology.
