Abstract

See full text

A polycrystalline superhard material comprises a sintered mass of superhard grains having a mean superhard grain contiguity of at least 62 percent and at most 92 percent. There is also disclosed a method of making such a polycrystalline superhard material. The method comprises providing a precursor body comprising superhard grains and interstices between the superhard grains, and introducing additive particles into the interstices to form a pre-sinter body. The pre-sinter body is submitted to a temperature and pressure at which superhard material is thermodynamically stable, sintering it and forming polycrystalline superhard material.
