In this paper, WC-10Ni3Al cemented carbides were prepared by the powder metallurgy method, and the effects of ball-milling powders with two different organic solvents on the microstructure and mechanical properties of cemented carbides were studied. We show that the oxygen in the organic solvent can be absorbed into the mixed powders by ball-milling when ethanol (CH3CH2OH) is used as a ball-milling suspension. This oxygen leads to the formation of α-Al2O3 during sintering, which improves the fracture toughness, due to crack deflection and bridging, while the formation of η-phase (Ni3W3C) inhibits the grain growth and increases the hardness. Alternatively, samples milled using cyclohexane (C6H12) showed grain growth during processing, which led to a decrease in hardness. Therefore, the increase of oxygen content from using organic solvents during milling improves the properties of WC-Ni3Al composites. The growth of WC grains can be inhibited and the hardness can be improved without loss of toughness by self-generating α-Al2O3 and η-phase (Ni3W3C).

Al86Ni7Y4.5Co1La1.5 (at.%) alloy powder was produced by argon gas atomization process. After high-energy ball milling, the powder was consolidated and extruded by using vacuum hot press sintering under different process conditions, sintering temperature, extrusion pressure, sintering time, etc.. The microstructure and morphology of the powder and consolidated bulk alloy were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The phase transformation of the powder was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Mechanical properties of the consolidated bulk alloy were examined. The results showed that as the milling time increase, the volume fraction of amorphous materials and the hardness and yield strength of the bulk alloy were obvious improved.
