The four basic stages of tungsten steel sintering process:
1. Remove the forming agent and the pre-firing stage. In this
stage, the sintered body changes as follows:
The removal of molding agent, sintering initial stage with the rise
of temperature, molding agent gradually decomposition or
vaporization, eliminate the sintering body, at the same time,
molding agent more or less to the sintering body carburization,
carburization amount will change with the type of molding agent,
the number and sintering process is different.
The oxides on the surface of the powder are reduced. At the
sintering temperature, hydrogen can reduce the oxides of cobalt and
tungsten. However, when the molding agent is removed in vacuum and
sintering, the reaction between carbon and oxygen is not strong.
The contact stress between the powder particles was gradually
eliminated, the bonding metal powder began to recover and
recrystallize, surface diffusion began to occur, and the strength
of the compaction increased.
2. Solid phase sintering stage (800℃ -- eutectic temperature)
At the temperature before the appearance of liquid phase, in
addition to continuing the process of the last stage, the solid
reaction and diffusion are intensified, the plastic flow is
enhanced, and the sintered body appears obvious shrinkage.
3. Liquid phase sintering stage (eutectic temperature -- sintering
temperature)
When the sintered body appears in the liquid phase, the shrinkage
is completed quickly, followed by the crystallization
transformation, forming the basic microstructure and structure of
the alloy.
4. Cooling stage (sintering temperature -- room temperature)
At this stage, the structure and phase composition of tungsten
steel change with the different cooling conditions. This
characteristic can be used to heat treatment of tungsten steel to
improve its physical and mechanical properties.
Application is introduced
Tungsten steel belongs to hard alloy, also known as tungsten
titanium alloy.
Hardness can reach 89~95HRA, because of this, tungsten steel
products (commonly known as tungsten steel watches), is not easy to
be worn, hard and not afraid of annealing, but the quality of
brittle characteristics.
The main components of cemented carbide are tungsten carbide and
cobalt, which account for 99% of all components, 1% for other
metals, so it is also known as tungsten steel.
It is often used in high precision machining, high precision tool
materials, lathes, impact drilling bits, glass cutter heads,
ceramic tile cutters, hard and brittle.
They are among the rare metals.
Tungsten steel (hard alloy) has a series of excellent properties
such as high hardness, wear resistance, good strength and
toughness, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, especially its
high hardness and wear resistance, even at the temperature of 500℃
is basically unchanged, at 1000℃ still has a very high hardness.
Hard alloy is widely used as materials, such as turning tools,
milling cutters, planer cutters, drill bits, boring cutters, etc.,
for cutting cast iron, nonferrous metals, plastics, chemical fiber,
graphite, glass, stone and ordinary steel, also can be used for
cutting heat-resistant steel, stainless steel, high manganese
steel, tool steel and other difficult to machining materials.
The cutting speed of the new cemented carbide is hundreds of times
that of carbon steel.
Tungsten steel (hard alloy) can also be used to make rock drilling
tools, mining tools, drilling tools, measuring tools,
wear-resistant parts, metal grinding tools, cylinder lining,
precision bearings, nozzles, etc.
Tungsten steel, hard alloy mold, plate, bar, square bar, ring, top
hammer, roller ring, cutting tools, and a variety of tungsten steel
carbide standard specifications large inventory spot.
