Evaluation by extended Hückel method on the hardness of the B–C–N materials
Hard materials, e.g. diamond and cubic boron nitride (c-BN), are widely applied to improve the lifetime and the performance of many kinds of cutting and forming tools. These materials are usually used at high temperature, so the study of stability on these materials at high temperature is very impor...
