The present invention relates to a method of making a cemented carbide body with a bimodal grain size distribution by powder metallurgical methods including wet mixing without milling of WC-powders with different grain size distributions with binder metal and pressing agent, drying preferably by spray drying, pressing and sintering. The grains of the WC-powders are classified in at least two groups, one with smaller grains and one group with larger grains. According to the method of the invention the grains of the group of smaller grains are precoated with a grain growth inhibitor with or without binder metal. <IMAGE> |
