Chemically assisted process for the machining of ceramics

摘要

For the machining of ceramic materials, there are employed halogenated hydrocarbon compositions, e.g., CCl4, CCl3CF3, CHCl2CHCl2, and CCl2=CClCCl=CCl2, to increase the removal rate of the ceramic material. The halogenated hydrocarbon composition is applied to the contact surface of the machine tool, e.g., a diamond-surfaced grinding wheel, and the ceramic and acts as a chemical assistant in machining the ceramic.
