Segments were produced under a pressure of 35 MPa, at a sintering temperature of 600°C, over a sintering time of 3 minutes. The cutting properties of the produced segments were determined by cutting Ankara andesite. A Scanning Electron Microscope SEM and an X-Ray Diffractometer XRD were used to analyse the microstructure, phase compound, and wear surfaces of each segment type.falseCBN cutting tools | Hot-pressing technique | WearArticle10.2478/amm-2013-013510.2478/amm-2013-01352-s2.0-84894188859WOS:00033019420001811191123582300-1909
