Peculiarities of Vacuum Sintering of Tungsten Carbide-Cobalt Nanopowders Obtained by Using Thermal Plasma
The process of vacuum sintering of tungsten carbide-cobalt composites with or without grain size inhibitors is investigated.The average grain size of pure tungsten carbide is 40-60 nm.The influ.ence of process parameters such as temperature and time hold on the structure and porosity obtained hard alloy is studied.The accurate regulation of carbon con tent in tungsten carbide make possible to avoid the ap pearance of double carbide (eta-phase) as well as ab normal grain growth in material structure even on the solid-phase sintering.The quantity of snbmicronic pores forming during sintering of such powders can be sharply decreased under hold in vacuum at the temper ature below start of sample displacement.The possibili ty of saving of considerable part of carbide particles in the structure less than 100 um in diameter is shown.Obtained hard alloys have higher Vickers hardness and fracture strength on 25 % ~ 30 %.
