The effect of cryogenic treatment on the mechanical and magnetic properties of WC–6% Co Ultrafine cemented carbides has been investigated in this paper. The results show that after the cryogenic treatment, the hardness slightly increases from 1750 to 1830, however, the transverse rupture strength decreases from 2510 MPa to 2480MPa. ,the magnetization decreased from 5.82% to 5.72%, decreasing 1.71%for 24 h, but the coercive force slightly increases and reaches the maximum of 24 kA/m for 2h.

To investigate the role of nano-Al2O3, WC–Al2O3–8wt%Co hard metals was mixed with 0-1.2 wt% nano-Al2O3 and prepared by conventional sintering (CS) for 2 h at 1440°C to see whether the addition of Al2O3 could improve densification behaviour, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the samples. The results showed that the use of Al2O3 nanoparticles as dispersions could reduce the porosity of WC-Co alloy and decrease the relative density; it could also inhibit the growth of the grains of WC-Co hardmetal to enhance the hardness and transverse rupture strength of the alloy in a proper range. The influence of Al2O3 content on the magnetic properties including coercive force and saturated magnetic intensity of the WC–Al2O3–8wt%Co hardmetals manifested the additive of nano-Al2O3 have effect on the WC grain growth inhibition and the formation of decarbonization phase in the alloy.

WC-Co cemented carbide specimens were prepared via vacuum sintering. The influences of composition and sintering temperature on phase composition, microstructure and mechanical properties of WC-Co cemented carbide were investigated. The results show that dense specimens were obtained in the sintering temperature range of 1280~1400°C and the relative density reached over 95%. Only WC and Co3W3C (-phase) were detected by XRD without any else phases, even though Co. With the ascended sintering temperature, hardness increased and the transverse rupture strength (TRS) ascended to peak value and then descended. WC-Co cemented carbide with excellent mechanical properties (HRA>90, TRS~700MPa and KIC>10MPa•m1/2) were obtained.
