We report on an ultrarapid (6 s) consolidation of binder-less WC using a novel Ultrahigh temperature Flash Sintering (UFS) approach. The UFS technique bridges the gap between electric resistance sintering (≪1 s) and flash spark plasma sintering (20–60 s). Compared to the well-established spark plasma sintering, the proposed approach results in improved energy efficiency with massive energy and time savings while maintaining a comparable relative density (94.6%) and Vickers hardness of 2124 HV. The novelty of this work relies on (i) multiple steps current discharge profile to suit the rapid change of electrical conductivity experienced by the sintering powder, (ii) upgraded low thermal inertia CFC dies and (iii) ultra-high consolidation temperature approaching 2750 °C. Compared to SPS process, the UFS process is highly energy efficient (≈200 times faster and it consumes ≈95% less energy) and it holds the promise of energy efficient and ultrafast consolidation of several conductive refractory compounds.

In the present study, seven refractory compounds - TiC, NbC, TaC, WC, Ti (C,N), (Ti,Nb)(C,N) and TiN - have been produced by plasma-chemical synthesis and carbothermal reduction process of a precursor prepared by sol-gel method. The phase composition, crystallite size, morphology and specific surface area of the synthesized powders are investigated by XRD, TEM, SEM and BET respectively. Spark plasma sintering (SPS) method (up to 1850 °C, heating rate of 100 °C/min and dwelling time of 5 min.) are used for investigation of compacting of these compounds. Characteristics of the obtained ceramic materials are provided.
