High-productivity, field-relevant assessment of relative fracture resistance for hard materials – The ball mill edge chipping test (BMECT)

Abrasion-resistant materials for rock-facing applications typically display low fracture toughness. For materials selection, available fracture data are limited, due to the cost of testing. To address this shortage, a new type of fracture test, denoted the ball mill edge chipping test (BMECT), has b...
