AN IMPROVED PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF A TUNGSTEN CARTIDE REINFORCED FERROUS COMPOSITE.

摘要

The present invention provides a process for the preparation of tungsten carbide reinforced cast ferrous composite by melting a mild steel scrap and a tungsten scrap in a plasma furnace at a temperature of 1650 ° C, in the presence of a carbonaceous material for a time period ranging between 10-20 min, under inert atmosphere, tapping and casting of the above said melt to the required shape to get tungsten carbide reinforced ferrous composite.
