the tribological behavior of tungsten carbide composites, and aims to develop the wear
resistance of these composites by addition of cubic boron nitride (cBN). Wear tests of spark
plasma sintered 6 (wt.%) Co/WC, 25 (vol%) cBN/6Co/WC and conventionally fabricated 6
(wt.%) Co/WC as a reference sample were performed by ball-on-disk contact with dry and
rotational sliding at room temperature in order to determine the friction coefficient and wear …
