A dispersion-strengthened cutting tool will be made of a 80 vol % commercial purity nickel matrix and 20 vol % synthetic diamond. Nickel has an elastic modulus, given in Table 6.1, of 200 GPa and a tensile fracture strength of 400 MPa, and synthetic diamond has an elastic modulus of 900 GPa and a tensile fracture strength of 1000 MPa. Estimate the tensile strength and elastic modulus of this alloy.

What will be an ideal response?


The tensile strength is estimated as
