Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cemented carbide materials technology, specifically to a high-performance ultra-coarse cemented carbide material and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Ultra-coarse-grained cemented carbide, due to its excellent wear resistance, high strength, and good toughness, is widely used in machining, mining, and oil drilling. However, with the increasing demands for material performance in industry, existing ultra-coarse-grained cemented carbide products suffer from poor bending strength, low density, poor hardness, and poor thermal fatigue resistance. Furthermore, they exhibit poor wear resistance and overall poor performance, limiting their efficiency. Therefore, this invention provides further improvements. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this invention is to provide a high-performance ultra-coarse cemented carbide material and its preparation method, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] The present invention solves the technical problem by adopting the following technical solution: This invention provides a high-performance ultra-coarse cemented carbide material, which comprises 90-92 parts of WC powder, 9-10 parts of Co powder, 1-3 parts of forming agent, and 20-25 parts of auxiliary additives. The auxiliary additive is prepared by oleic acid and anhydrous ethanol in a weight ratio of 2:5. The Co powder is cobalt powder with a particle size of 1.0-1.5 μm, the forming agent is paraffin wax, and the WC powder has a particle size of 30-35 μm.
[0005] Preferably, the ultra-coarse cemented carbide material further contains 5-8 parts of functional agent and 4-7 parts of modifier; The preparation method of the functional agent is as follows: S01: Mix 3-5 parts of carbon nanotubes, 2-5 parts of 85% ethanol aqueous solution and 1-2 parts of silane coupling agent KH550 evenly to obtain carbon nanotube liquid. S02: Dissolve tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane hydrochloride in deionized water and adjust the pH to obtain a buffer solution. The concentration of tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane hydrochloride in the buffer solution is 1-2 mg / mL, and the pH of the buffer solution is 8-11. S03: Add 2-3 parts sodium alginate solution and 1-2 parts buffer solution to 5-8 parts β-cyclodextrin, stir and treat to obtain modified β-cyclodextrin solution; 2-3 parts of carbon nanotube liquid and 5-8 parts of modified β-cyclodextrin liquid are thoroughly mixed to obtain a carbon nanotube-based blended solution. S04: 3-5 parts of nano-titanium carbide, 2-3 parts of graphene and 2-4 parts of boron nitride are blended and sintered for 1 hour. After sintering, a sintered body is obtained. The nano-carbon nanotube-based blending liquid and the sintered body are then blended and ball-milled for 2 hours at a speed of 1200-1500 r / min. After ball milling, the mixture is filtered and dried to obtain the functional agent.
[0006] Preferably, the sintering temperature of the blending sintering is 210-220℃, and the mass fraction of the sodium alginate solution is 4-7%.
[0007] Preferably, the stirring speed in S03 is 150-200 r / min, the stirring time is 20-30 min, and the stirring temperature is 50-55℃.
[0008] Preferably, the method for preparing the modifier is as follows: S11: Prepare a urea solution with a mass fraction of 2-5% and a lanthanum chloride solution with a mass fraction of 4-7%; mix 1-2 parts of nano-silica sol, 5-8 parts of urea solution and 2-3 parts of nickel sulfate evenly, then add 2-3 parts of lanthanum chloride solution and stir evenly to obtain nickel sulfate solution. S12: Mix chromium carbide body and nickel sulfate solution at a weight ratio of (3-5):7 to obtain nickel sulfate-chromium carbide composite agent; then, treat the nickel sulfate-chromium carbide composite agent and the lubricating material at a weight ratio of (11-15):5 to improve lubrication. After lubrication, filter and dry to obtain the modifier.
[0009] Preferably, the chromium carbide body is obtained by blending chromium carbide, yttrium oxide and molybdenum disulfide in a weight ratio of (3-5):2:(1-2) and sintering for 1 hour at a sintering temperature of 150-170℃.
[0010] Preferably, the finishing and improving treatment is performed by ball milling, first at a speed of 1050-1150 r / min for 1 hour, and then at a speed of 450-550 r / min for 2 hours.
[0011] Preferably, the method for preparing the repairing agent is as follows: Mix 3-5 parts of aluminum silicate fiber, 5-8 parts of sodium silicate solution and 1-2 parts of nano diamond evenly, then add 2-4 parts of silica powder and 1-2 parts of citric acid, sonicate, filter and dry to obtain the repair material.
[0012] Preferably, the sodium silicate solution has a mass fraction of 2-5%; the ultrasonic power of the ultrasonic treatment is 350-400W, and the ultrasonic treatment lasts for 1 hour.
[0013] This invention also provides a method for preparing high-performance ultra-coarse cemented carbide materials, comprising the following steps: The raw materials were weighed according to the weight proportions, and the raw materials were wet ball milled for 12 hours. Then, they were spray granulated and sintered. The sintering temperature was 1440-1460℃, the sintering pressure was 5MPa, and the sintering time was 1-2 hours to obtain the ultra-coarse cemented carbide material of the present invention.
[0014] The high strength / high toughness of carbon nanotubes and graphene in the functional agents are uniformly distributed in the alloy matrix through dispersion modification of the β-cyclodextrin-sodium alginate composite system, forming a "rigid support-flexible bridging" structure, which effectively hinders crack propagation; the grain refinement and interface optimization of the modifier: yttrium oxide (Y2O3) in the modifier acts as a grain refiner to avoid abnormal grain growth and refine the number of grain boundaries; molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) modifies the WC-Co interface bonding state, reduces interface defects (such as pores and oxide phases), and improves stress transfer efficiency.
[0015] WC powder itself possesses a high hardness base. The functional agent nano-titanium carbide and the modifier chromium carbide, together with nano-diamond, form a composite hard system of "ultra-coarse WC + ultra-fine hard phase," which synergistically enhances hardness. The densification effect of dispersion and sintering processes: The auxiliary additive (oleic acid: anhydrous ethanol = 2:5) acts as a dispersant, which can reduce the probability of raw material agglomeration during wet ball milling. After spray granulation, the particles have excellent flowability. Combined with high-pressure sintering at 1440-1460℃, it promotes diffusion and bonding between particles, reduces closed pores and porosity defects, and improves density. The interface filling of the modifier: The composite phase formed by nickel sulfate, lanthanum chloride, and nano-silica sol can fill the gaps at the WC-Co interface, optimize the interface bonding state, and further improve density and hardness uniformity. Both boron nitride and graphene in the functional agents have high thermal conductivity, which can quickly conduct heat at high temperatures and reduce thermal stress concentration; chromium carbide and yttrium oxide in the modifiers can form a dense oxide film (Cr2O3, Y2O3), which hinders oxygen diffusion into the alloy and improves oxidation resistance; aluminum silicate fiber in the lubricant has excellent high-temperature stability and can enhance the high-temperature structural stability of the alloy; molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) can still maintain solid lubrication properties at high temperatures, reducing high-temperature friction and wear; yttrium oxide (Y2O3) refines grains, reduces grain boundary hot corrosion channels, and high-pressure sintering reduces defects such as porosity, thus reducing the probability of crack initiation at high temperatures; The ultra-coarse WC grains + TiC + Cr3C2 + nanodiamond form a "gradient wear-resistant system" that can resist different types of wear (abrasive wear, adhesive wear); molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) in the modifier is a solid lubricant that can reduce the coefficient of friction and reduce adhesive wear; the β-cyclodextrin-sodium alginate modification system in the functional agent improves the dispersibility of nanoparticles and avoids the agglomeration of hard phases that leads to increased local wear; this invention achieves a five-fold synergy of "high hardness + high bending strength + high toughness + high heat resistance + high wear resistance" through component synergy and process optimization. The comprehensive performance indicators are superior to existing products, and it can meet the needs of use under multiple working conditions and complex loads (such as simultaneous impact, etc.). High-temperature and wear-prone oil drill bits and mining pick teeth); synergistic division of labor between functional agents and modifiers: functional agents focus on improving "strength-toughness-heat resistance" (synergy of carbon nanotubes, graphene, and BN), while modifiers focus on optimizing "hardness-wear resistance-density" (synergy of Cr3C2, nanodiamond, and MoS2). Performance complementarity is achieved through interfacial bonding improvement; the nano-components (carbon nanotubes, graphene, nanodiamond, etc.) in functional agents and modifiers are modified by β-cyclodextrin, sodium alginate, silane coupling agents, etc., to avoid agglomeration and achieve "nanoscale dispersion + macroscopic density", which not only brings out the excellent performance of nanomaterials, but also ensures the macroscopic structural stability of the alloy.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The ultra-coarse cemented carbide material of this invention is made by blending raw materials such as WC powder, Co powder and forming agent, and adding functional agents and modifiers as co-forming materials to further enhance the performance of the product. As a result, the ultra-coarse cemented carbide material has excellent density, hardness, thermal fatigue resistance and wear resistance, and the overall coordination effect of the product is significant.

[0073]
[0074] As can be seen from Comparative Examples 1-14 and Examples 1-3; The product in Example 3 exhibits excellent flexural strength, density, hardness, wear resistance, and thermal fatigue resistance. The overall performance of the product is significantly improved, and its overall performance is coordinated and enhanced. As can be seen from Comparative Examples 1-14 and Example 3, the performance of the product deteriorates significantly when neither a functional agent nor a modifier is added. The performance of the product is significantly improved when both are blended and formulated. The preparation methods of the functional agents do not include nano-carbon nanotube-based blending solutions, nor do they include nano-carbon nanotube liquid, modified β-cyclodextrin liquid, or buffer solution.

The functional agents obtained using the specific method of this invention exhibit the most significant performance improvement. Additionally, the preparation of the sintered bodies is proprietary. Therefore, the technical solution of this invention provides the most significant performance improvement for the products. In the preparation of the modifier, chromium carbide, nickel sulfate solution, lubricant, aluminum silicate fiber and silica powder, and nanodiamond were not added. Furthermore, water was used instead of sodium silicate solution. All these methods resulted in a deterioration in product performance. Only the modifier prepared using the specific method of this invention exhibited the most significant performance improvement. In the preparation of the modifier, all raw materials are indispensable; only the specific raw material ratio of this invention can be used. Using other raw material ratios does not yield the same significant effect as this invention.
