Problems solved by technology

For tungsten products with large size and complex shape, compression molding is difficult to achieve
Moreover, the density of each part of the compact is uneven, and the shape is difficult to control, which makes the weight and size of the product highly dispersed, and the productivity is low.
Although the injection molding process solves some problems, due to the influence of binder and degreasing, only parts with relatively complex shapes and small thickness (or diameter) (10mm) can be formed.
The development of parts with large thickness or more complex shapes with large size and cross-section changes is limited
For parts with large cross-section changes and large diameters (>70mm) and complex-shaped tungsten alloy parts, it is very difficult to prepare them using the current powder injection molding technology.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for forming a big-size complicated shape tungsten product, belonging to the technical field of powder metallurgy. The invention is characterized by comprising the following steps: adding a monomer and a cross-linking agent with the volume ratio of 1-300:1 into an organic solvent or a deionized water to prepare a premixing solution with the volume ratio of 1-120:1and concentration of 5-50wt%; mixing tungsten powder and the prepared stable gel system premixing solution, adding a dispersing agent which accounts for 0.05-5wt% of the mass of the tungsten powder, adjusting the pH value, and carrying out stirring or ball-milling for 2-10h to obtain suspended size with good mobility; adding a catalyst with the concentration of 0.1-3.5 wt% and an initiator and stirring uniformly, injecting into a big-size complicated shape mould after vacuum degassing, solidifying at the temperature of 40-90 DEG C for 50s-30min, and demoulding; and drying a green body in vacuum or under protective atmosphere, and sintering to obtain the tungsten product. The big-size complicated shape tungsten product can be produced by the method in the invention, thereby avoiding complicated shape and property limitation and big energy consumption caused by super high pressure required in forming process and removing special degreasing technology. The invention has the advantages ofsimple technology and low production cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a forming technology of tungsten products, which belongs to the field of metal parts preparation in the powder metallurgy production process, and in particular provides a gel injection molding technology for nearly net-shaped large-sized and complex-shaped tungsten product parts. technical background [0002] Tungsten has the advantages of high density, good impact toughness, high plasticity and low yield strength, stronger absorption of X-rays and γ-rays than lead, high resistance to corrosion and oxidation, good electrical conductivity, and low thermal expansion coefficient.
