Abstract

The invention relates to an industrialized preparation method of a WC-Co hard alloy with low cost and high performance, which belongs to the technical field of hard alloys and powder metallurgy. The method comprises the following steps: taking WO2.9, Co3O4 and carbon soot as raw materials, and computing the usage ratio of the three materials according to the requirement of the Co content in a final hard alloy block material; adding 0-1.0 percent by weight of grain growth inhibitor into the prepared WC-Co composite powder, and adding polyethylene glycol as a forming agent into a ball milling tank 4-8 hours before ball milling is finished, wherein 30-80ml of polyethylene glycol is added into the powder material per kilogram; acquiring WC-Co mixed powder with a nanocrystal structure after ball milling, and putting the mixed powder into a mould for press forming after vacuum drying; and sintering the mixed powder stock after press forming in a mode of vacuum sintering or low-pressure sintering. The industrialized preparation method markedly shortens a production period, the provided integrated preparation course markedly reduces the production cost while ensuring the high performance of the hard alloy and has a high performance-price ratio, and the preparation method is suitable for industrialized scale production.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an industrialized preparation method of WC-Co cemented carbide with low cost and high performance, belonging to the technical field of cemented carbide and powder metallurgy. Background technique [0002] WC-Co cemented carbide is widely used in cutting tools, molds, mining tools and wear-resistant parts due to its unique properties such as high hardness, wear resistance, bending strength and good fracture toughness. It is generally believed that the key technology for preparing high-performance cemented carbide is the preparation of WC and Co mixed powder and its sintering and densification. At present, the basic route for preparing cemented carbide materials is to prepare WC powder and Co powder separately, then mix them uniformly by ball milling, and finally sinter and densify to obtain cemented carbide bulk materials. [0003] The first step in the preparation of cemented carbide is the preparation of high-quality WC and Co raw m...
