What material is that ultrafine cemented carbide?

Answer:

You mean the ultra-fine grain cemented carbide, generally we have 0.6 alloy grain size is fine, which belongs to the tungsten carbide base hard alloy, ordinary tungsten carbide base hard alloy strength and hardness are higher than the same cobalt content. The process is mainly mixing, wetting, drying, forming, sintering, finishing, such as sand blasting, CVD/PVD coating, heat treatment, etc.
The main component of cemented carbide is tungsten carbide, so also known as tungsten steel, tungsten steel belongs to hard alloy, also called tungsten titanium alloy. The hardness can reach HRB89 to 95Tungsten steel production process is as follows: the powder is pressed into a blank, and then into the furnace heated to a certain temperature (sintering temperature), and keep a certain time (time), and then cooled down to obtain the required properties of tungsten materials.The characteristics of ultrafine cemented carbide is the main component of WC, compared to the hard phase and general hard alloy, the hard phase particles are very fine (average grain size less than 1um), so you can get a higher than the general hard alloy of the same hardness strength (toughness), edge grinding can be sharper and better wear resistance.
Comparison of high-end materials, suitable for high - quality products, are generally fine particles of products. Its hardness and strength are superior. So the price is relatively high
