The aim of present work is to study the effect of VC and/or Cr3C2 in densification, microstructural development and mechanical behavior of nanocrystalline WC-12wt.%Co powders when they are sintered by spark plasma sintering (SPS) and hot isostatic pressing (HIP). The results were compared to those corresponding to conventional sintering in vacuum. The density, microstructure, X-ray diffraction, hardness and fracture toughness of the sintered materials were evaluated. Materials prepared by SPS exhibits full densification at lower temperature (1100 °C) and a shorter stay time (5 min), allowing the grain growth control. However, the effect of the inhibitors during SPS process is considerably lower than in conventional sintering. Materials prepared by HIP at 1100 °C and 30 min present full densification and a better control of microstructure in the presence of VC. The added amount of VC allows obtaining homogeneous microstructures with an average grain size of 120 nm. The hardness and fracture toughness values obtained were about 2100 HV30 and close to 10 MPa m1/2, respectively. 相似文献

WC–12 wt.% Co grade cemented carbides doped with 0.9 wt.% VC, NbC or Cr3C2 grain growth inhibitor were consolidated by pulsed electric current sintering (PECS), also known as spark plasma sintering (SPS), in the solid state at 1240 °C for 2 min. The microstructure and properties of the PECS material grades are compared with those of pressureless sintered grades, liquid phase sintered at 1420 °C for 1 h. Microstructural and hardness characterization revealed that both the chemical composition and sintering technique play an important role on the WC grain growth and final mechanical properties. To obtain a nanometer sized WC–Co microstructure, it is essential to carefully select the grain growth inhibitor in addition to the application of a fast thermal densification cycle by means of spark plasma sintering. 相似文献

The relative density of WC-Co cemented carbides during spark plasma sintering (SPS) was analyzed.Based on the change in displacement of the ram in the SPS system,the relative densities in the sintering process can be achieved at different temperatures.The results indicated that densification of the samples started at near 900℃,the density rapidly reached its maximum at the increasing temperature stage,in which the temperature was lower than the sintering temperature of 1200℃,and most of the densification took place in the stage.Besides,the theoretcal values were consistent with the experimental results. 相似文献

This study compares the microstructure and mechanical properties of plain and 0.9 or 3.6 wt% VC- or Cr3C2-doped WC–12 wt% Co hardmetals with 40 wt% NbC, prepared by pulsed electric current sintering (PECS) in the solid state for 4 min at 1240 °C and conventional pressureless liquid phase sintering (CS) for 1 h at 1420 °C. The addition of VC or Cr3C2 was found to inhibit grain growth of the residual WC grains, whereas the size of the solid solution (Nb,W,V/Cr)C grains was hardly influenced. The type of grain growth inhibitor and densification temperature however, strongly influenced the composition of the NbC solid solution formed, which was thermodynamically and experimentally assessed. 相似文献

WC–12 wt.% Co powder mixtures with 0, 0.45 or 0.9 wt.% VC additions were consolidated by solid state pulsed electric current sintering (PECS) for 2 min at 1080–1240 °C. The influence of the sintering condition and VC concentration on the densification, WC grain growth and mechanical properties of the cemented carbides were investigated. Finite element simulation revealed that the radial temperature gradient inside the sintering powder compacts could be homogenised using a carbon felt insulation surrounding the graphite die set-up. 相似文献

Ultrafine WC–Ni–VC–TaC cemented carbides with different amounts of cubic boron nitride (cBN) were fabricated by spark plasma sintering, and the microstructure and mechanical properties of the as-prepared cermets were investigated. Scanning electron microscopy observations showed that the size of WC grains in the cermet samples was 0.2–0.4 μm. After the addition of cBN, the samples were still quite dense with the highest relative density of almost 98% when the addition fraction of cBN was 50 vol.%, although some micropores might exist in the samples. X-ray diffraction results indicated that no phase transformation of cBN was detected. The relative density and hardness of the cemented carbides increased with the addition fraction of cBN, but their strength decreased. When the fraction of cBN increased from 0 up to 50 vol.%, the hardness of the samples increased from 2100 to 3200 HV, but the flexural strength decreased from 1950 to 1250 MPa. 相似文献

This paper deals with the effects of codoped VC/Cr3C2 and sintering temperature on the magnetic and mechanical properties of ultra-fine grained WC-12%Co alloys. Results show that the synergistic action of doped VC/Cr3C2 in optimal proportion enhances both the hardness and transverse rupture strength (TRS) of the alloys, with more homogeneous microstructure. When the alloy is sintered at 1430℃ and with 0.5% Cr3C2/0.2% VC, the TRS reaches 3786 MPa, the hardness is 91.7 HRA and the grain size srnaller than 0.6 μm. The numerical analyses on grain growth during the sintering process show that both VC precipitating on the WC grain boundary and Cr3C2 dissolving in the Co phase decrease the solid/liquid interfacial energy γ, the process of dissolution and reprecipitation is greatly retarded and the coarsening of WC grains is inhibited. 相似文献

This study investigates the microstructures and mechanical properties of Ti50Al50 alloys prepared via mechanical alloying (MA) starting from elemental powders. The process of the spark plasma sintering (SPS) has also been studied. It is found that the nanocrystallization process of the Ti–Al alloy proceeds and the sintering temperature can control the microstructure of alloy. The sintering of the compacts is carried out at the temperatures of 1100–1200 °C with a compaction pressure of 30 MPa and a heating rate of 30 °C min−1. Specimens with high densities and approaching the equilibrium state can be obtained in short time by spark sintering than conventional sintering. Such shorter high temperature is important to prevent grain growth. 相似文献

Five model alloys based on WC-16.6 vol% Co with different amounts of Cr3C2 (0–12 vol%) substituting WC were studied. Their microstructures were characterised with X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy in combination with energy dispersive X-ray analysis. Thermodynamic calculations on the C-Co-Cr-W system were carried out using the Thermo-Calc software. The microstructures were related to previously published results on properties (magnetic coercivity, hardness, transverse rupture strength and indentation fracture toughness) of these materials. The aim of this work was to investigate whether the positive effect of small Cr3C2 additions on grain refinement and various properties remains also for large Cr3C2 additions. For Cr3C2 additions larger than 2 vol%, the most obvious effect on the microstructure was the formation of a chromium- and cobalt-rich M7C3 carbide. The Cr/Co ratio of this phase depends on the amount of Cr3C2 substituting WC. Some large WC grains were present in the WC-Co material, but not in the materials with Cr3C2 additions. Apart from this, no major changes of the WC grain size with Cr3C2 content were observed. The partial replacement of tough binder by presumably brittle M7C3 carbide might explain the lower toughness of these materials. 相似文献

This work compared phase composition, microstructures and mechanical properties of ZrB2—20 vol.% SiC—5 vol.%Yb2O3 prepared by hot pressing (HP) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) in vacuum. Despite the same raw material composition, the two densification techniques led to the appearance of different secondary phases. The HP ceramics had coarsened microstructure, predominantly intergranular fracture characteristic and high fracture toughness. The SPS ceramics exhibited refined microstructure, transgranular fracture model and high bending strength. 相似文献

The ultrafine grained WC-10Co-0.45Cr3C2-0.25VC alloys were fabricated through planetary ball milling and low pressure sintering. The effects of the cobalt particle size, milling speed and sintering temperature on the microstructure, hardness and fracture toughness of the ultrafine grained alloys were investigated using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and mechanical testing. The results showed that the mechanical properties of the low pressure-sintered alloys substantially depend on the milling speed and sintering temperature. At the same time, the hardness and fracture toughness of the samples can be increased from 1703 MPa and 8.90 MN m−3/2 to 1789 MPa and 11.21 MN m−3/2, respectively, when the cobalt particle size is reduced from 17 μm to 1.4 μm. 相似文献

Pure molybdenum was sintered with SPS under various temperatures, external pressures and heating rates. The microstructure of the specimens representing the different sintering conditions was investigated by classical metallographic methods. The relative density, the microhardness and the chord length distribution were measured. Linear shrinkage, depending on time or temperature, was calculated from piston travel, which was recorded during sintering process. These results show that the main part of consolidation takes place during fast heating up. The densification behaviour is controlled mainly by sintering temperatures and applied pressure. The molybdenum powder was successfully consolidated by SPS in very short times. A relative density of 95% was reached by sintering temperatures of 1600 °C and external pressure of 67 MPa. 相似文献

Effect of VC addition on sinterability and microstructure of ultrafine Ti(C, N)-based cermets in spark plasma sintering 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
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. 相似文献

Alumina matrix composites containing 5 and 10 wt% of ZrO2 were sintered under 100 MPa pressure by spark plasma sintering process. Alumina powder with an average particle size of 600 nm and yttria-stabilized zirconia with 16 at% of Y2O3 and with a particle size of 40 nm were used as starting materials. The influence of ZrO2 content and sintering temperature on microstructures and mechanical properties of the composites were investigated. All samples could be fully densified at a temperature lower than 1400 °C. The microstructure analysis indicated that the alumina grains had no significant growth (alumina size controlled in submicron level 0.66-0.79 μm), indicating that the zirconia particles provided a hindering effect on the grain growth of alumina. Vickers hardness and fracture toughness of composites increased with increasing ZrO2 content, and the samples containing 10 wt% of ZrO2 had the highest Vickers hardness of 18 GPa (5 kg load) and fracture toughness of 5.1 MPa m1/2. 相似文献

The hydrogen storage capacities, hydrogen absorption mechanism and hydride stability of Mg-based composites prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) were investigated in this paper. The results showed that the composites had a double-phase microstructure of Mg phase and V-based solid solution, with nanocrystalline magnesium existing at their sintering interface. With the addition of the V-based solid solution in 20% volume fraction, the composite exhibited a maximum reversible hydrogen storage capacity of 4.2 wt.% at 573 K, compared with that of pure Mg of almost zero. DSC results indicated that the hydride decomposition temperature of MgH2 decreased sharply from 708 K in pure Mg to 636 K and to 591 K as the volume of V-based solid solution increased from 20 vol.% to 50 vol.%. With the addition of V-based solid solution, the hydrogen absorption kinetics of pure Mg was greatly improved at 573 K, and its hydrogen absorption mechanism changed from surface reaction control to diffusion control in the composite. Based on these experimental results, a model was put forward to describe the hydrogen absorption/desorption mechanism in these composites. 相似文献

A mixture of Ti/Si/TiC/diamond powders was employed to fabricate the Ti3SiC2 bonded diamond composite using the spark plasma sintering-reactive synthesis method. The addition of diamond does not inhibit the synthesis of Ti3SiC2 in the sintered product. In the matrix Ti3SiC2 grains developed lamellar morphology with an average length size of 5-10 μm. Ti3SiC2 matrix displays good pullout strength with diamond, and the Ti3SiC2 bonded diamond material exhibits good wear resistance. 相似文献
