VERFAHREN ZUR HERSTELLUNG VON EINEM ZEMENTIERTEN SUBMICRON-KARBID MIT ERHÖHTER ZÄHIGKEIT

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of making a cemented carbide with submicron grin WO grain size consisting of WO, 6-12 wt-% Co and 0.1-0.7 wt-% Cr using conventional powder metallurgical technique mixing, pressing and sintering. According to the method the WC-grains are coated with Cr prior to mixing. As a result a cemented carbide with improved properties is obtained.
