DESCRIPTION:Polycrystalline diamond (PCD) was originally developed in the 
 1970s for use in tooling. During manufacture\, a transition metal catalyst
 \, usually cobalt\, is introduced to moderate the sintering pressures and 
 temperatures. However\, the cobalt binder remains within the PCD microstru
 cture and plays a key role in crack nucleation and propagation. Here\, the
  wear of PCD is studied using solid particle erosion at ambient and high t
 emperatures.
