  1. 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

  2. 2. 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.

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; adhesion; segregation; plastic deformation; microstructure; interfaces; electron structure calculations; cermets; sintering; infiltration; cemented carbides; grain boundaries; cutting tools; density-functional theory; hardmetals; WC-Co; wetting;

    Abstract : Cemented carbides are hard composite materials of great technological importance. They are widely used as tool materials in a large variety of applications where the demands on hardness and toughness are high, including e.g.≈mining, turning, cutting, and milling. READ MORE

  4. 4. Microstructure of Cermets

    Author : Per Lindahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thermodynamic; microchemistry; N ; AP-FIM; Ti C; cutting tools; SEM; cemented carbide; TEM; sintering;

    Abstract : The microstructure of several TiC-TiN-Mo2C-WC-Co/Ni model alloys and a commercial (Ti,Ta,W,Mo)(C,N)-(Co,Ni) type cermet was studied using x-ray diffraction, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, analytical electron microscopy and atom probe field ion microscopy. In addition thermodynamical calculations were made in order to understand the development of the microstructure during sintering. READ MORE

  5. 5. A computational study of interface structures and energetics in cemented carbides and steels

    Author : Sven Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; WC-Co; cemented carbides; interfaces; density functional theory; microstructure; sintering; steels;

    Abstract : Cemented carbides are hard composite materials of great industrial importance. Because of their combination of hardness and toughness, they are used e.~g. for cutting, drilling, turning and milling. READ MORE
