2. 1. Cemented Carbide Sintering : Constitutive Relations and Microstructural Evolution

   Author : Anders Petersson; KTH; []
   Keywords : Cemented carbides; Sintering; Constitutive relations; Microstructure; Densification; Modelling;

   Abstract : Cemented carbides based on tungsten carbide and cobalt arecommonly produced by a powder metallurgy route including liquidphase sintering. The pressed compact densifies to almost halfits volume during sintering due to pore elimination. READ MORE

4. 2. Aspects of Structural Evolution in Cemented Carbide – Carbide Size, Shape and Stability

   Author : Ida Borgh; Joakim Odqvist; Peter Hedström; Annika Borgenstam; Jean-Michel Missiaen; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cemented carbide; Ti; Zr C; Coarsening; Phase separation; C-activity; initial WC powder size; electron backscattered diffraction; microscopy; X-ray diffraction;

   Abstract : Cemented carbide is a composite material used in applications like cutting tools and rock drilling inserts. The material commonly consists of WC grains embedded in a Co-rich binder phase and the material properties strongly depend on the WC grain size. READ MORE

5. 3. On the Nature of Cemented Carbide Wear in Rock Drilling

   Author : Ulrik Beste; Staffan Jacobson; Mikael Olsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; cemented carbide; wear; rock drilling; rock; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

   Abstract : WC/Co cemented carbide is a composite material for highly demanding wear applications. The unique combination of hardness (from the WC-phase) and toughness (from the binder Co) gives a material especially suitable for rock drilling. READ MORE

6. 4. WC grain growth during sintering of cemented carbides : Experiments and simulations

   Author : Karin Mannesson; John Ågren; Annika Borgenstam; Håkan Engqvist; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cemented carbide; Grain growth; Abnormal grain growth; Image analysis; Modeling; 3-D grain size distribution; Inverse Saltykov; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

   Abstract : Cemented carbides are composite materials consisting of a hard carbide and a ductile binder. They are powdermetallurgically manufactured, where liquid-phase sintering is one of the main steps. The most common cemented carbide consists of WC and Co and it is widely used for cutting tools.

7. 5. Environmental, Resource and Health Assessments of Hard Materials and Material Substitution: The Cases of Cemented Carbide and Polycrystalline Diamond

   Author : Anna Furberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Life cycle assessment; polycrystalline diamond; disability-adjusted life years; material flow analysis; machining tools; cemented carbide;

   Abstract : The conventional hard material used in manufacturing industry, cemented carbide (WC-Co), mainly consists of the geochemically scarce elements tungsten and cobalt. This use of scarce resources could potentially be avoided by a material substitution to the more abundant and largely carbon-based material polycrystalline diamond (PCD). READ MORE
