| First Author, [#] | Process | Tool Material | Workpiece Material | Key Findings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yong [116] | Milling | Tungsten carbide G10E | ASSAB 760 | DCT improves tool life as consequence of higher heat transfer. |
| Firouzdor [117] | Drilling | M2 HSS | CK40 | Better wear resistance against diffusion wear. |
| Vadivel [118] | Turning | Coated carbide inserts | AISI/SAE 80-55-06 SG | Higher hardness and better wear performance due to uniform distribution and higher volume fraction of refine carbides particles. |
| SreeramaReddy [119] | Turning | Tungsten carbide | C45 steel | Increment of carbide grain size after DCT increased the thermal conductivity and reduced cutting tool tip temperature. |
| Reddy [120] | Turning | ISO P-40 | AISI 1040 | Lower tool wear due to thermal conductivity improvement after DCT has been observed. |
| Gill [124] | Turning | P25 | C-65 | Longer durability was recorded for DCT insert followed by SCT due to higher precipitation of η-phase carbides. |
| Dogra [125] | Turning | Cubic boron nitride (CBN) | AISI H11 | 16%–23% tool life improvement has been reported. |
| Shirbhate [126] | Drilling | AISI M2 | C45 | Longer tool life and 35% reduction in surface roughness (Ra) were reported after DCT execution. |
| Çiçek [127] | Drilling | M35 HSS | Stainless steels | Longer tool life was obtained due to transformation of retained austenite to martensite and homogenous distribution of carbides particles. |
| Yuan [130] | Grinding | Diamond abrasive wheel | Ultra-fine grade cemented carbide | 20% reduction in residual stresses after CT execution were observed due to the cracking and plastic deformation in the WC grains. |
| Çiçek [131] | Drilling | M35 HSS | AISI 316 | Transformation of retained austenite into martensite and more homogeneous distribution of carbides provided better tool performance. |
| Çiçek [135] | Turning | Ceramic Inserts | AISI H13 | DCT reduces tool wear and surface roughness as result of higher volume fraction of fine carbides formation. |
| Özbek [137] | Turning | Cemented carbide | AISI 316 | Tool life was improved due to homogeneous distribution of small-sized carbide particles. |
| Mavi [138] | Turning | Cemented carbide | Ti-6Al-4 V | Tool life has been improved by 22% due to higher thermal conductivity improvement. |
| He [140] | Turning | Tungsten carbide | AISI 5140 | DCT coated inserts were shown better machinability in terms of cutting force, cutting zone temperature, surface texture, and tool life. |
| Thornton [141] | Turning | H13A | AISI 1045 | Better corrosion resistance obtained due to strengthen of carbide grains and the cobalt binder. |
| Thakur [142] | Turning | K 20 | Inconel 718 | CT encourages more densification of the cobalt binder which is strongly bonded by tungsten carbides and improves tool wear resistance. |
| Dong [143] | Grinding | Grinding wheel (3SG80KV) | 9Mn2 V | Improvement and releasement of residual stresses on the workpieces surface has been improved. |
| Kivak [144] | Drilling | M2 HSS | Ti-6Al-4 V | It was concluded that CT is more cost effective than coating which brings remarkable improvements. |
| Özbek [145] | Turning | Tungsten carbide | AISI 316 | Higher volume fraction of fine η-carbides after DCT execution improves the hardness and wear resistance. |
| Chetan [149] | Turning | KC5525 and K313 | Nimonic 90 | DCT strengthens the coating and reduces failure probability in comparison to coating durability and damage on untreated inserts |
| Khan [150] | Turning | K313 | CP-Ti grade 2 | DCT increases microhardness, wear resistance and improves chip formation phenomenon. |
| Naveena [151] | Drilling | Tungsten Carbide | AISI 304 | DCT encourages 19% reduction in average grain size of α-phase and consequently increases the hardness and improves wear resistance. |
