Abstract:
A process of manufacturing cemented carbide and to a product obtained thereof wherein hex doped WC is subjected to nitrogen before and/or during sintering.
Abstract:
A coated cutting tool of a cemented carbide substrate made of WC, a metallic binder phase and a gamma phase has a well distributed gamma phase and a reduced amount of abnormal WC grains. Further, the coated cutting tool is provided with a CVD coating of TiCN and an α-Al2O3 layer, wherein the α-Al2O3 layer exhibits a texture coefficient TC(0 0 12)≥7.2 and wherein in the ratio I(0 0 12)/I(0 1 14)≥1. The coated cutting tool has an increased resistance against plastic deformation. whilst maintaining toughness.
Abstract:
A rock drill button having a body of sintered cemented carbide that has hard constituents of tungsten carbide (WC) in a binder phase of Co, wherein the cemented carbide has 4-12 mass % Co and balance WC and unavoidable impurities. The cemented carbide also has Cr in such an amount that the Cr/Co ratio is within the range of 0.043-0.19, and that the WC grain size mean value is above 1.75 μm.
Abstract:
A hard metal composition of material comprised of, in weight percent, an alloy of from 6-15% of cobalt content; a molybdenum content of from 5-15% of the cobalt content and a chromium carbide content of from 0-15% of the cobalt content and the balance of tungsten carbide.
Abstract:
A method of producing a component of a composite of diamond and a binder, wherein a Hot Isostatic gas Pressure process (HIP) is used, includes the step of enclosing a de-bound green body having compacted diamond particles in an infiltrant. The method includes the further steps of enclosing the de-bound green body and the infiltrant in a Zr-capsule that has Zirconium as a main constituent and sealing the Zr-capsule, and applying a predetermined pressure-temperature cycle on the unit formed by the de-bound green body, infiltrant and capsule in which the infiltrant infiltrates the de-bound green body and the de-bound green body is further densified in the sense that the volume thereof is decreased.

Abstract:
A cutting tool made of a cemented carbide substrate of WC, a metallic binder phase and gamma phase is provided. The cemented carbide has a well distributed gamma phase and a reduced amount of abnormal WC grains. The cutting tool has a more predicted tool life and an increased resistance against plastic deformation.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a cutting tool including a cemented carbide substrate having WC, gamma phase and a binder phase. The substrate is provided with a binder phase enriched surface zone, which is depleted of gamma phase, wherein no graphite and no ETA phase is present in the microstructure and wherein the binder phase is a high entropy alloy.
