Abstract
A superhard structure comprises a body of polycrystalline superhard material comprising a first region and a second region, the second region being adjacent an exposed surface of the superhard structure, the second region comprising a diamond material or cubic boron nitride, the density of the second region being greater than 3.4×103 kilograms per cubic metre when the second region comprises diamond material. The material(s) forming the first and second regions have a difference in coefficient of thermal expansion, the first and second regions being arranged such that this difference induces compression in the second region adjacent the exposed surface. The first/a further region has the highest coefficient of thermal expansion of the polycrystalline body and is separated from a peripheral free surface of the body of polycrystalline superhard material by the second region or one or more further regions formed of a material or materials of a lower coefficient of thermal expansion. The regions comprise a plurality of grains of polycrystalline superhard material. There is also disclosed a method of making such a material.
