Abstract: The properties of silicon carbide whisker reinforced aluminium oxide, at present used for cutting tools when machining nickel based alloys, are in a very complex way related to processing and microstructure. important parameters that have been recognized include whisker/platelet distribution, diameter, aspect ratio, surface chemistry and surface morphology. One parameter that has not been discussed is the crystal structure of the silicon carbide phase. Silicon carbide exsist in a mumber of different polytypes, the most common with cubic or hexagonal structure. Available commercial silicon carbide contains mixed hexagonal and cubic silicon carbide-phases or single phase cubic. During sintering it is possible to transform cubic to hexagonal phase by special processing. It is shown that the hexagonal to cubic ratio strongly affects the performance in metal cutting operations and especially toughness behaviour is related to a high hexagonal to cubic ratio. <IMAGE>

Title: Ruban adhesif amovible
Inventor: KRECKEL KARL W
IPC: C09J7/24
Filed: 1991-12-16
Granted: 1997-02-05
Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à des rubans adhésifs, plus particulièrement à des rubans pouvant adhérer fermement à un substrat et enlevés sans endommager le substrat. Des adhésifs formulés de façon à présenter un niveau d'adhérence sensible, par exemple une adhésion au papier supérieure à 30 onces/pouce, sont généralement difficiles à enlever sans endommager le substrat. Des rubans aisément amovibles de la technique antérieure présentent une élasticité élevée ainsi qu'un recul important lorsque la force d'étirement est enlevée, tout comme une bande élastique reprend brusquement sa forme initiale lorsqu'on enlève la force d'étirement. Cette caractéristique d'étirement peut s'avérer dangereuse et augmente la force requise pour décoller ces rubans à des angles étroits. Enfin, ces rubans très élastiques ont tendance à récupérer sensiblement leur forme originale lorsqu'on enlève la force d'étirement, de sorte qu'ils ne présentent pas d'utilité en ce qui concerne l'indication d'une manipulation non autorisée ou la garantie d'un usage unique à des fins hygiéniques. La présente invention se rapporte à un ruban adhésif amovible comprenant un support hautement extensible et pratiquement non élastique, et une couche autoadhésive. Le support présente une résistance élevée à la traction ainsi qu'un allongement longitudinal à la rupture de 150 % environ et une récupération élastique inférieure à 50 % après l'étirement. L'adhésif peut se composer d'un adhésif à adhérence normale et sensible à la pression, et recouvre au moins une surface de la couche de support. Il est en outre de préférence hautement extensible, ne se détache pas de la couche de support au cours d'un étirement et présente un degré de cohésion supérieur au degré d'adhérence à n'importe quel substrat approprié. Lorsqu'il est appliqué sur un substrat de ce type, le ruban adhésif de la présente invention y adhère fortement, mais peut être facilement enlevé sans endommager le substrat tout simplement lorsqu'on l'étire en un sens pratiquement parallèle, c'est-à-dire à moins de 35° environ, par rapport à la surface du substrat.

Abstract: This invention provides apparatus for and a method of interferometrically inspecting a surface of an object. The invention is particularly well suited for inspecting semiconductor devices in the sub-micron range. A two beam interference microscope (102) obtains an image of an object (100) which is mounted on a piezo controlled sample table (104) and illuminated using a broadband light source. A CCD camera (100) obtains an image and the image is processed by using information derived from the interference fringes. The advantage is that large step heights can be measured and that a priori knowledge of the surface is not required. The invention can be adapted so that it can be used to simultaneously inspect and analyse an object, the latter being achieved by utilising data derived from a characteristic phase and/or spectral variation occurring in reflected light. This data can be manipulated mathematically e.g. by a Fourier Transform.
