This article investigates the chemical wear behavior of the ultra-hard ceramic AlMgB 14 and cemented tungsten carbide for machining aerospace alloys. The chemical interdiffusivity of AlMgB 14 against pure Ti and Ti-6Al-4V, in comparison with cemented carbide (WC-6%Co) cutting tool was investigated b...
