Abstract:The mechanical machining and finishing of cemented carbides is associated with high abrasive wear of cutting tools. Electrochemical Machining (ECM) is the technical application of high rate metal dissolution and well established for steels and several non –ferrous metals. ECM is a priory free of mechanical tool wear. Recently the authors investigated the high rate dissolution of cemented carbides in ammonia containing alkaline electrolytes [1]. The electrolyte system is suitable for ECM of tungsten carbide as … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
