The invention discloses a method for preparing carbon gradient in-situ formed surface self-
lubrication type Ti(C, N)-based
cermet. The method for preparing carbon gradient in-situ formed surface self-
lubrication type Ti(C, N)-based
cermet is characterized in that firstly, the temperature is kept at 500-700 DEG C for 1-2 hours, so that a
cermet green body containing a
carbide forming element is formed; SiO2 core / shell structure
powder covered with TiH2, multi-walled carbon nanotubes and BaCO3 are mixed according to the weight percentage ratio of 3:2:1 to be prepared into a hydrogenous
carburizing medium, wherein the outer
diameter of each multi-walled
carbon nanotube is smaller than 8 nm, the length of each multi-walled
carbon nanotube is smaller than 30 microns, and the specific surface area of each multi-walled
carbon nanotube is larger than 350 m<2> / g; the
green body is embedded into the hydrogenous
carburizing medium and is compacted at the pressure of 5-15 MPa; and finally, liquid-phase
sintering is conducted, and the self-
lubrication surface type Ti(C, N)-based cermet is prepared. The self-lubrication
surface type Ti(C, N)-based cermet preparation method adopting carbon gradient in-situ formation solves the problems that in the prior art, grains grow severely, the
carburizing time is long, and efficiency is low, and the surface self-lubrication type Ti(C, N)-based cermet is prepared based on carbon gradient in-situ formation in the
sintering process.
