Effect of WC on the microstructure and mechanical properties of nano Ti(C,N)-based cermets

In this paper, nano Ti(C,N)-based cermets with different WC additions were prepared by conventional powder metallurgy techniques. The microstructure of nano cermets was investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that there existed three kinds of “core–rim” structure in nano cermets, i.e., “black core–white rim”, “white core–gray rim” and “gray core–white rim” structures. With the increase of WC addition, there were more “white core–gray rim” and “gray core–white rim” grains. The amount of the abnormal growth grains decreased and the grains became more homogeneous with the WC addition. The lattice parameter of Ti(C,N) would increase with the WC addition. The mechanical properties of nano cermets were also improved with the increase of WC addition.     

二次颗粒尺寸和添加WC对双结构金属陶瓷组织和性能的影响

研究了二次颗粒尺寸和添加WC对双结构金属陶瓷组织和力学性能的影响,结果表明二次颗粒均匀地分布在基体中,随着添加WC含量的增加,组织中白芯灰壳结构和无芯结构增加。组织中发现了一种新的四层复合结构的硬质相。随着二次颗粒尺寸的增加,材料的断裂韧性提高,但抗弯曲度和硬度下降,而提高WC加入量,断裂韧性和抗弯曲度提高,但硬度有所下降。更高的断裂韧性主要归功于裂纹的分叉、桥接、偏转、微裂纹以及二次颗粒的拔出效应。     

Effect of VC addition on sinterability and microstructure of ultrafine Ti(C, N)-based cermets in spark plasma sintering

The effect of vanadium carbide (VC) addition on the sinterability and the microstructure of ultrafine Ti(C, N)-based cermets consolidated through spark plasma sintering (SPS) was systematically investigated using optical microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM) with X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Our results reveal that the addition of VC increases the porosity of sintering body and depresses the sinterability of Ti(C, N)-based cermets. It is also found that the VC addition has a significant influence on the microstructure of ultrafine Ti(C, N)-based cermets, which inhibits the dissolution of titanium-containing compounds and the formation of inner rim phase and outer rim phase, thus preventing from grain growth. Owing to the depressed dissolution and precipitation, nitrogen liberation is mitigated, therefore resulting in less amount of graphite phase in the samples. In substance, VC changes the solubility of metallic elements in the binder, which makes more elements of Mo and W to be reserved in the binder and thus greatly decreases the content of titanium dissolved into the binder. The re-building solubility rule determines the development of phases and microstructure.     

Effect of VC addition on the microstructure and properties of Ti（C,N）-based nano cermets

In this paper, Ti(C,N)-based nano cermets were prepared by nano particles, and the effect of VC addition on the microstructure and properties of Ti(C,N)-based nano cermets was investigated. The results showed that there existed black-core grayish-rim structure as well as gray-core grayish-rim structure in VC-doped Ti(C,N)-based nano cermets. With the increase of VC addition, the number of gray cores increased, the lattice parameter of Ti(C,N) phase increased, the grain size decreased, the hardness and fracture toughness of Ti(C,N)-based nano cermets were enhanced, and nearly full densification could be achieved. However, excessive addition of VC to 1 wt% resulted in slight decrease in hardness and fracture toughness. Some deep dimples were found in the fracture surface of cermets with VC addition, which corresponded to ductile fracture.     

Erosion-corrosion behavior of Ti(C,N)-based cermets containing different secondary carbides

The present work investigated the effects of secondary carbides (Mo₂C\WC\TaC\NbC) on the erosion-corrosion behavior of Ti(C,N)-based cermets. The results indicate that the erosion-corrosion resistance of Ti(C,N)-based cermets is enhanced in the order of NbC, TaC, WC and Mo2C addition. The contribution of erosion to the erosion-corrosion of Ti(C,N)-based cermets is much more significant than that of corrosion, and it increases with the decreased mechanical properties. The synergistic effect plays a dominant role in the degradation of Ti(C,N)-based cermets in erosion-corrosion conditions. There are two modes to ceramic phase degradation in erosion conditions: large ceramic grains are prone to deterioration through crack initiation and propagation → grain fracture → fragment removal; finer ceramic grains trend to be pulled out after the deterioration of binder and interface. The binder loss is determined by the corrosion resistance of binder, the erosion resistance of binder and the erosion resistance of ceramic phase.     

Ti(C,N)基金属陶瓷断口形貌及增韧机理

采用真空烧结工艺制备Ti(C,N)基金属陶瓷,测定了材料的力学性能。结果表明,其力学性能与未加纳米粉的金属陶瓷相比,硬度略有升高,但横向断裂韧性提高了近一倍。断口形貌和微观组织分析表明:金属陶瓷的断口形貌与其强韧性有着密切的关系。纳米粉的加入降低了原始粉末的平均粒度,使得金属陶瓷硬质相的粒度降低,减小了晶粒间的平均自由程。镶嵌于大颗粒环形相和弥散分布于粘结相中的细小硬质相颗粒,对裂纹的形成和扩展起到阻碍作用,会使金属陶瓷因裂纹扩展途径发生偏转而增韧。     

Mo对Ti(C,N)基金属陶瓷包覆相结构与性能的影响

Effect of submicron Ti(C,N) on the microstructure and the mechanical properties of Ti(C,N)-based cermets

There is an increased industry demand for Ti(C,N)-based cermets with improved material properties. One of the parameters which are supposed to influence these properties is the mean particle size of the Ti(C,N) powder used. In this study the effects of a newly developed submicron Ti(C,N) powder grade on the properties of Ti(C,N)-based cermets, including hardness, toughness and microstructure were investigated. The cermets showed only small differences with respect to outgassing upon sintering (investigated by MS-EGA) as well as shrinkage (dilatometry). Cermet formulations with submicron Ti(C,N) could be sintered under identical conditions as with fine Ti(C,N), yielding completely dense bodies of A00 porosity. From SEM and XRD investigations it was found that submicron Ti(C,N) powders cause accelerated diffusion and homogenisation of the microstructure leading to a substantially increased amount of outer rim phase, a higher amount of inverse grains and substantially finer and less Ti(C,N) cores. Upon using submicron Ti(C,N), hardness (HV10) is increased and in one grade the fracture toughness (Palmqvist–Shetty) is increased as well.     

Microstructure and mechanical properties of (Ti,W,Ta)C-xMo-Ni cermets

(Ti,W,Ta)C-xMo-20Ni (x = 0–20 wt.%) system cermets were prepared by using (Ti,W,Ta)C solid solution as hard phase, without adding secondary carbides in this work. The microstructures exhibited two kinds of carbide grains observable in the BSE mode: one had a dark core–gray rim structure; the other had a dark core–white inner rim–gray outer rim structure. Several (Ti,W)C white particles with high W content were also observed in the microstructures. Results showed that molybdenum has completely dissolved in the Ni binder and mainly was found in the rims of the carbide particles. As the Mo content increased, the wettability between (Ti,W,Ta)C particles and metallic phase was improved, and the shrinkage of cermets increased, the porosity decreased. Results also revealed that finer microstructures were obtained with the increase of Mo addition. But excess Mo addition caused the aggregation of particles. Mechanical properties such as hardness and TRS improved with the increase of Mo content, but the TRS of cermets reached a peak value at the 15 wt.% Mo addition, then declined with the further increase of Mo addition.     

Effects of molybdenum on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti（C,N）-based cermets with low Ni

The effects of Mo on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti（C,N）-based cermets with low Ni have been studied systematically. Different contents of Mo （4-12 wt.%） were added into Tl（C,N）-based cermets. Specimens were fabricated by conventional powder metallurgy and vacuum sintered at temperatures of 1440, 1450, and 1460℃ individually. The microstructure and fracture morphology were investigated by scanning electron microscope, and the mechanical properties such as transverse strength and hardness were measured. The results show that the microstructure is uniform and the thickness of rim phase is moderate when the content of Mo is 8 wt.%; the mechanical properties of the specimens sintered at 1450℃ are better than those sintered at 1440 and 1460℃. The integrated properties of transverse strength and hardness are the best when the content of Mo is 8 wt.% and the sintering temperature is 1450℃.     

EFFECT OF Mo AND Mo2C ON THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF THE CERMETS BASED ON Ti（C,N）

Effect of Mo and Mo2 C on the microstructure and properties of Ti（C,N）-based cermets was investigated in this article. The results have indicated that the weight percentage of Mo from 5 to 10 can reduce Ti（C,N） grain diameter and thickness of the rim, and Ti（C,N） grain can be wetted by Ni-Cu-Mo liquid so as to get small contiguity of Ti（C,N） grain. In that way, the transverse rupture strength of Ti（C,N）-based cermets has reached 1800-1900 MPa; the fracture toughness has been due to 16-18 MPa.m1/2. But 15 wt pct Mo was not more effective on Ti（C,N）-based cermets, because the thickness of the rim becomes larger. In the circumstance of Mo2 C, 5 wt pct Mo2 C was good for microstructure and properties of Ti（C,N）-based cermets, but 11 wt pct Mo2C has resulted in larger contiguity of Ti（C,N） grain and big Ti（C,N） grain diameter so as to reduce transverse rupture strength and fracture toughness. So that, the effect of Mo on Ti（C,N）-based cermets is better than Mo2C.
