PCT No. PCT/DE94/00048 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 1, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 1, 1995 PCT Filed Jan. 22, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO94/21835 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 29, 1994In order to improve the toughness characteristics of a cermet alloy, while retaining high resistance to wear, a composition is disclosed which contains 30 to 60% by weight of Ti, 5 to 20% by weight of W, 5 to 15% by weight of Ta, in which up to 70% of the Ta can be replaced by Nb, and 5 to 25% by weight of Ni and/or Co binder with more than 80 mole %, relative to the above transition elements of carbon and nitrogen. The composition is prepared by grinding, compressing and sintering a solid, powder-form mixture containing (Ti,W,Ta,Nb)C powder, Ti(C,N) powder, and WC powder, each powder having a particle size <1.5 mu m, plus Ni powder and/or Co powder. The mixture includes the following ingredients: (a) (Ti,W,Ta,Nb)C with a mean particle size <1.5 mu m, this mixed carbide containing 20 to 50% by weight of TiC, 20 to 40% by weight of WC, and 20 to 40% by weight of (Ta, Nb)C; (b) Ti(C,N), with a mean particle size <1.5 mu m and an N/(C+N) ratio <0.7; WC with a mean particle size <1.5 mu m; and (d) nickel and/or cobalt.
