Background Superhard materials are key materials that are not an alternative to industrial and technological developments. Superhard materials are an important strategic reserve in many countries. Currently, superhard materials are mainly classified into diamond and cubic boron nitride (c-BN). However, the two materials have the advantages of extremely high hardness, better wear resistance and the like, and also have the problems of severe preparation conditions, high production cost, large pollution and the like. Therefore, the development of a novel superhard material which can meet the requirements of modern production on high hardness and good wear resistance and has the advantages of low friction coefficient, low density, low cost and the like is urgent. Since 2000, ames laboratories reported that AlMgB 14 ceramics (32-35 GPa) have extremely high hardness and wide application. The advantages of excellent wear resistance, high temperature stability, heat resistance, low density and the like are widely studied in the fields of cutting tools, armors, heat-resistant coatings and the like.
