Abstract

Abstract: Nano CaF2 particles of different sizes were prepared by direct precipitation. The diameters of nano CaF2 particles prepared in mixed solvent can reach 5–7 nm, and can be effectively dispersed. The surface of nano CaF2 was modified and coated by heterogeneous nucleation method. A shell layer of Al(OH)3 was coated on the surface of nano CaF2, and the structure and coating mechanism of the coated powder were analyzed. Under varying preparation conditions, the surface morphology of CaF2 @Al(OH)3 was analyzed using TEM and SEM. The results showed that the coating powder showed good dispersion in mixed solvents, and the particle size of the composite powder was about 20 nm. Self-lubricating ceramic tool materials were prepared by adding coating particles to the Al2 O3 /Ti(C, N) matrix. The coating powder shell and the matrix material melt during sintering, so that CaF2 forms nanostructures in the particles. thereby improving the mechanical properties of the material. Cutting experiments show that the addition of coating particles can effectively reduce the temperature, cutting force and friction coefficient in the cutting process of the tool, thus improving the cutting performance of the tool material.
