Scientific and Practical Centre for Materials Research offers consumers a technology for the production of Composite Superhard Materials (CSHM) based on diamond and CSHM made of cubic boron nitride (CBN) with a diameter of 5 mm and a thickness of 3-4 mm under a commercial agreement with technical assistance and/or a licensing agreement and is looking for partners to conclude a technical cooperation agreement.

The Scientific and Practical Center for Materials Research of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus develops composite superhard materials (CSHMs), which are used in various industries due to their unique properties. These materials are composites consisting of superhard phases (such as diamond or cubic boron nitride) and binders.

Features and advantages of composite superhard materials:
1. High hardness:
- CSHMs possess exceptional hardness, making them indispensable for machining hard materials such as metals, ceramics, and stone.
2. Wear resistance:
- The materials exhibit high wear resistance, increasing the service life of tools and components.
3. Heat resistance:
- CSHMs retain their properties at high temperatures, making them suitable for use in intense heat environments.
4. Corrosion resistance:
- The composites exhibit high chemical resistance, which is important for use in aggressive environments. 5. Strength and impact toughness:
- These materials combine high strength with sufficient resistance to impact loads.

Applications of superhard composite materials:
1. Metalworking:
- Cutting tools (milling cutters, drills, and bits) for machining metals and alloys.
2. Mining:
- Drill bits and bits for mining.
3. Construction:
- Tools for cutting stone, concrete, and other building materials.
4. Electronics:
- Precision tools for machining semiconductor materials.
5. Aviation and automotive industries:
- Wear-resistant parts and coatings for mechanisms operating in extreme conditions.

Diamond-based composite materials are used as cutting elements in blade tools for turning non-ferrous metals, aluminum alloys, plastics, siliconized materials, hard and titanium alloys. CBN-based CSTM is used as cutting elements in blade tools for turning hardened steels, alloys, cast irons, and difficult-to-machine structural materials.

Technical and economic indicators:
Diamond-based CSHMs:
- Vickers microhardness, GPa - 84;
- crack resistance, MPa*m(1/2) - 10.5;
- abrasiveness, cm3/mG - 510.
CBN-based CSHMs:
- Vickers microhardness, GPa - 50;
- crack resistance, MPa*m(1/2) - 16;
- tool life when turning hardened steels (HRC52-54), min - 85.
