R16 放电等离子烧结无粘结相 WC 硬质材料的研究 郑东海 李元元 杨超 邵明 李小强 (华南理工大学机械与汽车工程学院，广东 广州 510640) 摘要：本文采用 0.8 μm 粒径的 WC 粉末，不添加任何粘结剂，直接利用放电等离子烧结技术进行烧结成形，并 对烧结块体材料进行硬度、断裂韧性等力学性能测试，采用 XRD 、SEM 等方法对相组成和显微组织进行了研究 分析。研究表明，经 1750 ℃保温 5 min 烧结的纯 WC ，其平均晶粒尺寸约为 0.8 μm ，硬度(HV10)达到了 24.81 GPa ， 断裂韧性为 6.38 MPa·m1/2 。在纯WC 粉末的烧结过程中，WC 因发生轻微脱碳，形成了少量W C 。对初始WC 2 粉末进行配碳球磨预处理，发现球磨大大促进了 WC 的烧结致密化行为，并且加入的碳可有效消除WC 的脱碳 现象。 关键词：纯WC 粉；放电等离子烧结；球磨；配碳 Research on binderless tungsten carbide prepared by spark plasma sintering Zheng Donghai, Li Yuanyuan, Yang Chao, Shao Ming, Li Xiaoqiang (School of Mechanical Automotive Engineering, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou, 510640, China) Abstract: In this paper, pure WC powders of 0.8 μm in diameter were sintered by spark plasma sintering(SPS) without any binders. The hardness and fracture toughness of the as-sintered WC were tested and the phase configuration and microstructure were also investigated by XRD and SEM. The experimental results showed that, after sintered at 1750 ℃ with holding for 5 min, the specimen had an average grain size of about 0.8 μm, hardness of 24.81 GPa(HV10) and fracture toughness of 6.38 MPa·m1/2. It was also observed that WC happened to be slightly decarburized and a small amount of W2C formed. Furthermore, WC powders added with carbon powders were pretreated by milling. It was found that the milled powders could be densified at much lower SPSing temperature, and the carbon additive eliminated the decarburization of pure WC.
