Embodiment

[0121] Production of cBN particles as raw material powder:

[0122] Process (I):

[0123] Using cBN particles with an average particle size of 0.5 to 8 μm as a base material, a thin film of Al is coated on it by the ALD method 2 o 3 Floor.

[0124] More specifically, cBN particles with an average particle diameter of 0.5 to 8 μm are charged in the furnace, the temperature in the furnace is raised to 350° C., and Al(CH 3 ) 3 gas, and H as a reaction gas 2 O gas, the following steps (1) to (4) are regarded as one cycle, and this cycle is repeated according to the target layer thickness (1 to 10 nm) shown in Table 1, thereby forming a thin film of Al on the surface of cBN particles. 2 o 3 Floor.

Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cBN tool which can exhibit excellent chipping resistance and excellent wear resistance even when used for the intermittent cutting of a high-hardness steel and can also exhibit excellent cutting performance throughout long-term use. The purpose can be achieved by providing a cutting tool made from a cBN sintered material, in which a cBN sintered material that contains at least cBN particles as a hard phase component is employed as a tool base, wherein each of the cBN particles has an Al2O3 layer that has, on the surface thereof, slits formed at an average formation ratio of 0.02 to 0.20 inclusive and has an average layer thickness of 1.0 to 10 nm, the cBN sintered material has, around the periphery of each of the cBN particles, a binder phase comprising TiN alone or a combination of TiN and TiC, TiB2, TiCN, AlN, Al2O3, WC or the like, and the sum total of the content of Al2O3 formed on the surface of each of the cBN particles and the content of Al2O3 present in the binder phase is 2 to 40 vol% on average wherein the volume of a region of each of the cBN particles which lies between the surface of each of the cBN particles and a zone located at the depth of 50 nm from the above-mentioned surface is defined as 100 vol%.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cubic boron nitride (hereinafter referred to as cBN)-based sintered cutting tool (hereinafter referred to as cBN tool) excellent in chipping resistance and chipping resistance. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-112492 filed in Japan on May 16, 2012, and Japanese Patent Application No. 2013-60098 filed in Japan on March 22, 2013, and the contents thereof are incorporated herein by reference. . Background technique [0003] Conventionally, cBN tools using a cBN-based sintered material (hereinafter referred to as cBN sintered body) as a tool material with low affinity with the workpiece are known for cutting iron-based workpieces such as steel and cast iron. . [0004] For example, as shown in Patent Document 1, it is known that cBN is contained as a hard phase in an amount of 40 to 80% by volume, and ceramics such as carbides, nitrides, and borides of IVB, VB, and ...
