摘要
Tungsten diboride ceramics with a relative density higher than 90 % without addition of sintering aid can be prepared by boron/carbothermal reduction method combined with spark plasma sintering. Among the raw materials,WO3, B4C, and C, C content is of vital importance to obtain WB2 bulk samples with high density and good mechanical properties. In the present work, we investigated the effects of C content in powder synthesis, as well as SPS sintering rate on phase composition, microstructure, and Vickers hardness of WB2 bulk samples.WB2 bulk sample with a relative density as high as -94 % was obtained with the optimal raw material ratio of WO3: B4C:C=2:1.075:4.8, which was then increased to -96 % with the decrease of sintering rate from 100 degrees C/min to 50 degrees C/min. This represents the highest relative density of the pure WB2 ceramic publicly reported in the literatures.
