Investigators from University of Grenoble-Alpes Target Refractory Metals and Hard Materials (Sintering Behavior, Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Nbc-ni Alloys With Different Carbon Contents)

摘要

2022 FEB 25 (VerticalNews) - By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Mining & Minerals - Current study results on Materials Research - Refractory Metals and Hard Materials have been published. According to news reporting out of Grenoble, France, by VerticalNews editors, research stated, “This work aims to study the influence of the carbon content in a (NbC-3vol%Mo2C)-12vol%Ni-0.5vol%WC alloy on the sintering process, and its resulting effect on the microstructure and mechanical properties. NbC cemented carbides with additions of Mo or C were sintered at 1450 degrees C for 1 h in the vacuum furnace of a dilatometer and of a TGA (Thermogravimetric Analysis) device.” Financial support for this research came from Hyperion Materials Technologies.
