Embodiment 1

[0017] Raw materials: the mass ratio of WC powder with a particle size of 0.2 μm, pure Co powder and VC powder with a particle size of 2.94 μm is 88.7:11:0.3.

[0018] The raw material powder with the above ratio is mixed evenly by high-energy ball milling for 30 minutes. After drying, put it into a graphite mold and carry out hot-pressing sintering. When rising to 750 ℃, keep warm for 5 minutes, and the hot press forming is completed. When cooled to below 100°C, take it out and demold it. Then combine the hot-pressed compact, graphite sealing sheet, carbon steel booster sheet, and pyrophyllite sheath that integrates insulation, heat insulation, and pressure transmission. The combined sample is put into a six-sided top press for ultra- Electricity sintering under high pressure, the sintering voltage is 1.25V, the sintering pressure is 10GPa, and the sintering time is 75s. That is to say, the obtained sample is fully dense, with a hardness of 91.8HRA and an ultrafine cemented...

Abstract

A preparation method of superfine crystal WC-Co hard alloys belongs to the field of high-performance functional materials. The powder mixture is composed of 8-11wt percent of Co, 0.001-0.7wt percent of VC, 0.001-0.8wt percent of Cr3C2, and WC with a grain size of 0.2-0.5 micron in balance. The powder mixture is weighed at the given weight ratio and then subjected to alloying treatment under such conditions that the ball-milling time is 15-60 min, the rotational speed of ball mill is 800-1400 r / min-1, the ratio of media-to-material is 5:1 to 10:1; and the level of ball milling media is 5-10 mm above the surface of the ball-milled material, so that the powder mixture is pre-formed to form a pre-forming blank with a density of 50-70 percent. The pre-forming blank is further processed into superfine WC-Co hard alloy by the ultra-high pressure sintering process in a six-face presser, under the following conditions: sintering voltage of 1.25-1.40V, sintering pressure of 10-12GPa, and sintering time of 60-120s. The method has the advantages that the powder is rapidly densified upon an extremely-high pressure and heating simultaneously; and the obtained produce has full density and high hardness (up to 93.1HRA) while the grain size of WC remains almost unchanged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of high-performance functional materials, and in particular provides a preparation method of ultra-fine grain WC-Co hard alloy, which can inhibit the growth of WC crystal grains and improve the performance of WC-Co hard alloy.
