Soviet Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    A study was made into the effect of heat treatment on the bending strength of WC-Co alloys and the composition of their cementing phase.

  2. 2.

    The composition of the cementing phase is practically independent of the rate of cooling in the temperature range investigated.

  3. 3.

    It is shown that, when examining the effect of composition on the strength of WC-Co alloys, it is also necessary to allow for changes in thermal stresses.
