WC steel-bonded cemented carbides were prepared by microwave sintering through ball milling, press forming and sintering with iron powders as the matrix, WC particles as the reinforcements. The effect of WC contents on microstructure and properties of steel-bonded cemented carbide was studied. The results show that the steel-bonded cemented carbide sintered at 1280 °C is considered as a liquid phase sintering and Fe7W6, Fe2W2C and Fe6W6C new phases are generated during the sintering process. The relative density, microhardness and bending strength of the steel-bonded cemented carbide increase with increasing the WC contents. Moreover, the mechanical properties of steel-bonded cemented carbide are obviously improved after heat treatment.

Microstructure And Mechanical Properties

A fibrous monolith cemented carbide with WC-6Co as cell and WC-20Co as cell boundaries was produced through hot co-extrusion process in this paper. The density, hardness, bending strength and fracture toughness of the fibrous monolith cemented carbide were tested, and the fracture and crack propagation were observed by metalloscope and SEM. The results showed that the bending strength and fracture toughness of the fibrous monolith cemented carbides was remarkably improved 71.91% and 45.7% respectively, while the hardness was slightly decreased 1% compared with WC-6Co composites. It is the reason that the tougher shell WC-20Co with higher bending strength and fracture toughness can absorb more fracture energy, which can slow down and prevent the crack propagating from brittle core WC-6Co.

Effect of Pr6O11addition on the microstructure and properties of superfine-grained WC-Co cemented carbide was studied by experiments. The experimental results show that Pr6O11can inhibit WC grain growth. In addition, the η phase firmed when the content of Pr6O11was more than 0.8%. When Pr6O11dopant amount is 0.4% and 0.8%, the alloy has the best bending strength and the best hardness respectively.

In this paper, the effect of heat treatment on the microstructure and properties of a 0.8 μm WC–10%Co ultrafine cemented carbide was studied. The results show that the microstructural differences in ultrafine WC–Co cemented carbides without and with heat treatment are mainly reflected in the Co phase. For conventional cemented carbides, the hardness and wear resistance can be increased only at the expense of the toughness and strength. An ultrafine-grained WC–Co cemented carbide with good hardness and toughness can be obtained by strengthening the Co phase through an appropriate heat treatment process, and the service life of the ultrafine-grained WC–Co cemented carbide can be improved under actual cutting conditions.

Ti-50Al alloy and Ti-47Al-3W alloy and its composites have been prepared by reactive arc melting technique using elemental powders. Composites have been reinforced using 3.5, 10 and 18 vol% of Ti2AlC in the matrix of TiAl with and without addition of W and C. By the addition of tungsten and carbon to TiAl alloy, we have produced composites that are reinforced randomly by reacted rod like Ti2AlC particles with fine precipitate of Ti2AlC particles and B2 particles. Compared to Ti-50Al alloys, the Ti-47Al-3W alloy and its composites have superior mechanical properties like bending strength, hardness, fracture toughness and erosion. Ti-47Al-3W/3.5 vol% Ti2AlC has excellent erosion resistance because of the dispersion of fine Ti2AlC and B2 particles in the matrix.

ZrO2 doped with 7.5% (volume percent) nanoalumina ceramics were prepared by microwave sintering processes. The effects of nanoalumina additions and various sintering temperature on densification, phase composition, microstructure and mechanical properties of Al2O3-ZrO2 ceramics were investigated. The results show that the m-ZrO2 phase transformed into t-ZrO2 during the process of microwave sintering. Relative densities between 95% and 99% were attained in the different conditions. In any cases the grain size was maintained at a submicron scale at a processing microwave sintering. The presence of Al2O3 grains had an effect of hindering grain growth of ZrO2 grains. When the microwave sintering temperature was 1500°C, 7.5Al2O3-ZrO2 composite ceramics presented excellent mechanical properties: HV=12.0 GPa, σf=715.7 Mpa, KIC=11.9 MPa·m1/2. Compared with that of pure ZrO2 ceramic, the bending strength and the fracture toughness were improved 45% and 23% at least, respectively. The fracture mode was associated with sintering temperature: when the sintering temperature was 1350°C~1450°C, the intergranular fracture and transgranular fracture coexisted; when the sintering temperature was 1500°C, intergranular fracture was the main fracture mode.

The melting mixing was applied in the preparation of Multiwalled carbon nanotubes/Polycarbonate (MWCNTs/PC) nanocomposites. MWCNTs/PC nanocomposites with different MWCNTs contents were prepared under different injection conditions. The mechanical property of nanocomposites was comparatively investigated. The results demonstrated that: the tensile property of the nanocomposites was slightly improved by MWCNTs content increasing; but as the MWCNTs contents went on to increase to 10wt%, the tensile strength and bending strength were obviously decreased about 35% and 47%, respectively, but the impact strength and hardness were increased. The center hardness of MWCNTs/PC nanocomposites was greater than the surface hardness. Besides, the changes on the mechanical properties of the nanocomposites were studies by changing the injection conditions. By Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) observation, the microstructure and morphology of nanocomposites were analyzed, revealing that the center of the nanocomposite distributed more MWNTs, and the injection conditions would affect the MWNTs’ dispersion in the matrix and the interfacial interaction between MWCNTs and PC.

Steel-bonded cemented carbide GT35 was fabricated from natural ilmenite by in-situ carbothermic reduction and vacuum pressureless sintering. The effects of C content on the mechanical properties and microstructures of GT35 composites were investigated. As an excellent reducer, carbon provides an impetus for a series of reductive process. C content determines the melting point of the steel matrix, and directly affects the mechanism of dissolving and segregating of TiC particles, forming a netlike microstructure. Besides, the liquid steel whose viscosplasticity is determined by C content was coated on the surface of the composite and refrained the release of CO. The results showed that the good mechanical properties of steel-bonded cemented carbide GT35 composite were obtained with 0.9wt.% C at the same sintering conditions and the density reached 6.12g/cm3, the average bending strength was over 1229MPa after heat treatment, the mean hardness HRC was 69.4. It also showed that in-situ reduction of natural limonite was a feasible way to fabricate good performance GT35 composite with a relatively low cost.

To explore the effects of preparation process on the mechanical properties of fiber reinforced tubes in radial direction, the closed ring method was applied to assess the elastic modulus and bending strength of GFRP and CFRP prepared by winding method and pultrusion method, respectively. The results indicate that there are two obvious differences between the winding tube and the pultrusion tube: i) the elastic modulus and bending strength of the winding tube for two materials are larger than that of the pultrusion tube. It should be attributed to the position of materials under stress: the former is the fibers while the latter is the matrix; ii) the failure mode for the winding tube is brittle fracture while elastic-plastic fracture is for the pultrusion tube. Compared with other experimental methods, the results of the closed ring method are accurate and reliable, which is demonstrated to be a potential method to evaluate the mechanical properties of fiber tubes in radial direction rapidly and conveniently.

To respond to the requirements for porous Ti sheet with the balanced properties of high porosity and good mechanical properties, and to optimize the manufacturing conditions of the simple powder-filling plus sintering process, effects of sintering temperatures on density and bending strength in porous Ti sheet were investigated. The optimum sintering condition was 900-950 °C for 1h to obtain porous Ti sheet with the balanced density ratio (around 40%) and high bending strength. The polyhedron shape of HDH powders contributed to those balanced properties, in which localized sintering raised bending strength with keeping high porosity (low density). Using the optimum manufacturing conditions, large sized porous Ti sheet of 400 × 800 × 0.5 mm was successfully manufactured.
