Thermal properties of cemented carbides: Regression model offers predictions using reliable and readily measurable material characteristics

By Lisa McDonald / March 31, 2023

The accuracy of models for predicting thermal properties of cemented carbides has been limited by dependance on unreliable conductivity data or time-consuming grain size measurements. Two researchers at a Sweden-based tooling company formulated a regression model that offers fairly accurate predictions using only reliable and readily measurable material characteristics.
