Zusammenfassung: | A polycrystalline diamond member and a method for making the same. The member includes a backing and a layer of polycrystalline diamond on the backing wherein the layer of polycrystalline diamond has a rake surface and a flank surface. The layer of polycrystalline diamond has an interior region adjacent to the backing and an exterior region adjacent to the interior region wherein the exterior region terminates at the rake surface. The interior region includes interior diamond particles and a catalyst with the interior diamond particles being bridged together so as to form interstices therebetween. The catalyst is at the interstices of the interior diamond particles. The exterior region includes exterior diamond particles bridged together so as to form interstices therebetween with the exterior region being essentially free of the catalyst. A chemical vapor deposition-applied hard material essentially surrounds the exterior diamond particles. |
