초록

The widespread use of WC-based hard materials as cutting, machining, and wear-resistant materials is primarily due to theirunique combination of desirable properties such as high hardness, strength, resistance to compressive deformation. This studyinvestigates how the ZrSiO4 additive affects WC-based hard materials fabricated by a spark plasma sintering, i.e., WCZrSiO4,WC-Co-ZrSiO4, and WC-Fe-ZrSiO4. The purpose of the study is the fabrication of novel cemented carbide consistingof WC-Zircon composite that gives a clear advantage compared to conventional hard materials, i.e., WC-Co and WC-Fe, interms of cost and strengthened hardness. After being planetary ball milled to refined powder, the compact WC-X (X: metallicbinder, Co and Fe) and WC-Y (Y: Zircon, ZrSiO4) composites were consolidated at different temperatures in establishedcomposition ratios. Densification of the composites was found to depend on their microstructural evolution according towhether dissociation/transformation of zircon occurred and so inter-diffusion of binders. To investigate mechanical properties(hardness, fracture toughness, and transverse rupture strength) were measured in light of each material distribution ofadditives and grain size.
