Micro groove forming on AlN/hBN composites using powder blasting process
In this study, powder blasting techniques are applied for micro groove forming on the developed AlN/hBN composites. First, material properties of the composites are evaluated according to the variation of h-BN contents. And, a series of required experimental works are performed to determine optimum powder blasting conditions for micro groove forming. The experiments are performed for the prepared samples with masked patterns. As the results, it can be observed that the machiniability of the developed AlN/hBN composites increases as h-BN contents in the composites. Also, from the experimental results, it is possible to determine the optimum blasting conditions for micro groove forming on the developed AlN/hBN composites.
