Carbides and nitrides based on the transition metals of Groups 4 through 6 of the Periodic Table have a number of special physical and mechanical properties that make them attractive for use in engineering applications. This paper discusses these properties and how they are exploited in cemented carbides and carbonitrides used in metalcutting and nonmetalcutting applications. 

These novel microstructures have extraordinary combination of physical and chemical properties [11-13], for this reason they become an important scheme of actually science work. One example of such nanomaterials is boron carbonitride (BNC) with graphite-like structure. Based on theoretical calculations, the existence of nanotube structures of BN was predicted in 1994, which was soon verified by the first synthesis of BN nanotubes in 1995.

The polymer performance and production efficiency can be enhanced as a function of the basic features of the reinforcement fillers. In the attempt to achieve fillers with increased performance, the following features must be monitored density, flame retardancy, mechanical resistance, thermal conductivity, and magnetic properties. Nanoparticles of carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides can be used to reinforce polymer matrix nanocomposites with desirable thermal conductivity. However, current trends in the design of these materials reveal that is not enough to choose a wellperforming material for each component of the heat dissipation path. In addition, careful attention must be paid to the manner in which these materials interact with each other. A filler that conducts heat well but does not wet the matrix may lead to poor results compared to a lower conductivity filler that does wet the matrix. In other words, a major fact that leads to interfacial resistance is faulty physical contact between filler and matrix, which primarily depends on surface wettability (Han and Fina2011). 

As a consequence of their superior physical and chemical properties, silicon nitride and silicon carbonitride films have become increasingly important for both structural and microelectronic device applications. Chemical vapor depositions (CAH)) has become a major technique for the synthesis of these thin film materials flO].
