Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of hard alloy, more particularly to a hard alloy containing WC, Co, Ni, Cr and Al components and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Hard alloy is mainly composed of refractory metal hard phase WC as matrix, Co or Ni as binder, and is a high-hardness and high-wear-resistance material prepared by powder metallurgy, which plays an irreplaceable role in cutting tool, impact tool and wear-resistant parts, and is one of the key hard materials indispensable to high-end manufacturing industry in China, and is given the title of "industrial tooth".

[0003] Hard alloy roller ring is also a composite material prepared by powder metallurgy with refractory metal compound as skeleton and transition metal as binder. Due to its high strength, high hardness, excellent wear resistance and high temperature resistance, it is widely used in the rolling production of bar, wire, special steel and threaded steel. Compared with traditional cast iron roller ring, the rolling efficiency of steel has been greatly improved.

[0004] Although the WC-Co hard alloy roller ring used in the early stage has good stability and reliability, its temperature when contacting red steel can be close to 80% of the liquid phase eutectic temperature. The latest generation of hard alloy roller rings for high-speed wire of foreign advanced enterprises generally use Co-Ni-Cr as binder, such as C10C, C15C, C20C, C25C and C30T roller ring grades of Sandvik Company in Sweden; the fourth generation SM-N series roller ring grades of SinterMet, LLC in the United States; and CE260 and other grades of CERAMETAL Company in Luxembourg. These roller ring grades of foreign advanced enterprises mainly add Ni and a small amount of Cr elements to improve the oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance of the binder phase, so that WC-Ni-Co-Cr has significantly higher wear resistance and high temperature oxidation resistance than WC-Co alloy under the condition of similar strength and hardness. The hard alloy roller ring using WC-Ni-Co-Cr material not only can improve the surface quality of rolled material, but also can improve the high temperature stability and corrosion resistance of the roller ring, and has a wider working condition range.

[0005]

[0006] ​WC-Co-Ni-Cr hard alloy has high hardness, strength and wear resistance, but in recent years with the downstream steel body enterprise technology innovation and progress, the traditional WC-Co-Ni-Cr hard alloy is difficult to adapt to the harsh working conditions of high stress and high strength. The state attaches great importance to the energy saving of steel industry, encourages the steel industry to introduce new technology. In 2018, the state implemented the new standard GB / T1499.2-2018 to replace GB / T1499.2-2007 for steel enterprises, and the rolling of threaded steel cannot obtain high strength by strong water cooling to avoid the generation of closed martensite structure; at the same time, in order to reduce the amount and cost of alloy elements, the most feasible method is to use low temperature rolling, that is, to carry out threaded steel rolling production below the recrystallization temperature, to avoid the grain growth of rolling deformation refinement, so as to reduce the content of alloy elements, improve the elongation and strength of the material, and will not produce closed martensite structure, meet the requirements of new national standard for steel performance and organizational structure.

[0007] With the progress of steel rolling technology and environmental protection cost control, steel enterprises increase the pace of improving product competitiveness and technological upgrading, and low temperature rolling technology is valued and applied by various enterprises. The application of WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al material appears. The production and manufacture of WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al material encounters certain difficulties. Although the addition of Al element promotes the improvement of mechanical properties of alloy material under high temperature conditions, elemental Al is easy to oxidize in the manufacturing process; in 1985, Japanese scholar Nishigaki proposed to use AlN instead of Al for addition in the 11th Plenary International Academic Conference, which generates γ' phase (Ni, Co)3Al in the sintering process, so that the alloy has excellent toughness, wear resistance, high temperature strength and oxidation resistance, which theoretically solves the problem.

[0008] Patent CN201110449684.X discloses a WC-Co-Ni-Al-B hard alloy roller ring material and a manufacturing method, which uses AlN instead of Al and adds trace B to improve the creep resistance, alloy strength, hardness and wear resistance of the hard alloy.

[0009] The related data literature reports that AlN is very stable at normal temperature and pressure, and WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al hard alloy roller ring is produced by using AlN instead of Al. Because the product single weight is large (usually more than 10 kg), AlN will crack to different degrees in the sintering process, which will cause the appearance of Al oxide and induce the generation of porosity defects. This has a serious impact on the density of WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al hard alloy roller ring product, and affects its mechanical properties. SUMMARY

[0010] The present application aims at the deficiencies and difficulties existing in the prior art, and provides a method for batch production of large single heavy coarse grain cemented carbide WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al.

[0011] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:

[0012] A cemented carbide containing WC, Co, Ni, Cr and Al components, in terms of mass percentage, comprising the following components: Co 7.5-16%, Ni 7.5-16%, Cr 0.5-1.0%, AlN 0.8-2.7%, and the balance being WC.

[0013] Preferably, the mass ratio of Co to Ni is 1:1.

[0014] Preferably, the particle size of the AlN powder is ≤2μm.

[0015] Another object of the present application is to provide a preparation method of the above-mentioned cemented carbide containing WC, Co, Ni, Cr and Al components, comprising: wet-mixing AlN powder with coarse WC powder, Co powder, Ni powder and Cr powder / Cr carbide, ball-milling to a point, then sequentially performing drying, sieving, granulating, pressing into a green compact, then sequentially performing binder removal, solid phase sintering, liquid phase sintering and vacuum heat treatment.

[0016] Preferably, the solid phase sintering comprises: the first stage 700-800℃ with a holding section, during which the vacuum is extracted to a limit of ≤5Pa, the second stage (700-800)℃-1000℃, the third stage 1000℃-1250℃, the fourth stage 1250℃-1290℃, and the fifth stage 1290℃-1320℃.

[0017] The vacuum degrees in the five solid phase sintering stages are monitored and named as P1, P2, P3, P4 and P5, respectively, wherein P1 takes the minimum value, and P2-P5 take the maximum value.

[0018] Take the minimum value of P1 as the basis for comparison, when P4≤P1, P4

[0019] If P4>P1, then adjust the heating rate of the fifth stage to achieve P5≤P1, then determine that the AlN cracking in the sintering process of WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al material has been completed; if after adjustment, P5≤P1 cannot be achieved, then it is determined that the AlN cracking is not completed, and the alloy material after sintering may have porosity defects, which is a difficult to repair organizational defect, and the alloy material can only be scrapped.

[0020] AlN cracking is determined by two factors: temperature and vacuum degree. The smaller the vacuum degree value, the lower the cracking temperature, and vice versa. The temperature of cemented carbide solid phase sintering is generally not more than 1320℃-1350℃, and the AlN cracking is completed before the end of solid phase sintering. The smaller the vacuum degree value, the more conducive to completing the cracking at a lower temperature. The vacuum degree in the solid phase stage is dynamically changing, and the vacuum degree can be adjusted by adjusting the heating rate, but when the evaporation speed of the material exceeds the vacuum pumping limit of the sintering equipment, the vacuum degree value in P3 segment is very high, and the AlN cracking stops, while the vacuum system is still working. The residual AlN will continue to crack when the vacuum degree and temperature reach the conditions, which will cause P4≥P1.

[0021] When designing the solid phase sintering stage process, the heating rate of P3-P5 segment should be designed according to the actual vacuum pumping capacity P1 of the sintering equipment, to ensure that the vacuum cracking process of AlN is completed in P4 segment, and P5 segment is used as the finishing stage, taking into account the control of production cycle and cost.

[0022] Generally, the sintering process of cemented carbide is divided into three stages, namely, removal of forming agent, solid phase sintering and liquid phase sintering. The removal of forming agent is generally completed at 500-600 DEG C, and then the solid phase sintering is completed by heating to 1320-1350 DEG C, and then the liquid phase sintering is carried out at high temperature, and finally the cooling is carried out. In the WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al material, the AlN cracking in the sintering process is mainly completed in the solid phase stage, which is also the key step for completing the sintering densification of the alloy material, that is, the control of the AlN cracking in the sintering process. If the uncracked residual AlN enters the liquid phase sintering stage, it may cause bubble porosity and Al oxide precipitation, affecting the densification of the alloy structure. Since the vacuum cracking of AlN can only occur under vacuum heating conditions, relevant papers have reported that AlN can be cracked at 800 DEG C or above under vacuum conditions. Therefore, the solid phase sintering stage of the WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al product is designed as follows: the first stage is 700-800 DEG C, the second stage is 800-1000 DEG C, the third stage is 1000-1250 DEG C, the fourth stage is a verification stage of 1250-1290 DEG C, and the fifth stage is a finishing stage of 1290-1320 DEG C.

[0023] The temperature rising rate ΔT (0.2-2.5 DEG C / min) and the vacuum degree value P1-P5 (1.0-20 Pa) of the five different stages of the solid phase sintering of the WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al material are designed and monitored, so as to determine whether the AlN cracking in the WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al material is completed, and to ensure that the alloy material enters the liquid phase sintering after the solid phase sintering is completed.

[0024] Preferably, the fsss particle size of the coarse WC powder is greater than or equal to 20 microns.

[0025] Preferably, in the wet grinding mixing, the grinding medium is hexane, and the ball-to-material ratio is 2.5-2.0:1.

[0026] Preferably, the holding time of the holding section is greater than or equal to 30 minutes.

[0027] Preferably, the temperature rising rate of the second to fifth stages is 0.2-2.5 DEG C / min.

[0028] Preferably, the liquid phase sintering is a holding treatment at 1400-1460 DEG C for 1 hour.

[0029] Preferably, the vacuum heat treatment is a holding treatment at 600-650 DEG C for 28-32 hours.

[0030] According to the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0031] 1. The method of combining vacuum degree and heating rate is used to solve the densification problem of WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al large product, and the metallographic porosity of the prepared large product is not less than A02B00.

[0032] 2. The change trend of vacuum degree value is used to observe and control in different stages of solid phase sintering, so as to accurately judge whether the AlN cracking is completed in the sintering process.

[0033] 3. The existing sintering equipment in the hard alloy industry is used, the change trend of vacuum value in the furnace and the design of heating rate are used to control the AlN cracking, the densification sintering of WC-Co-Ni-Cr-Al material is completed, no additional new equipment is invested, and batch production is facilitated.
