摘要
Composite powders of tungsten carbide (WC) and iron rich binder were prepared by an innovative approach, which consists in sputtering of a metallic binder on the tungsten carbide particles. The phase composition, microstructure and mechanical behaviour of WC coated powder composites with binder contents from 6 to 9 wt.% were characterized. eta-Phase is early formed during sintering and its effect on the mechanical behaviour was investigated and related to the microstructure and atomic structure. The results show that the presence of eta-phase has not a hazardous role in toughness as is previewed in conventional cemented carbide. Despite the presence of q-phase, a good compromise between toughness and hardness was attained in composites prepared from iron rich binders sputtered on WC powders.
