A gradient multilayer nano Ti (C, N)-based
metal ceramic and a preparation method thereof relate to the field of
powder metallurgy, and the method comprises the following steps: S1, mixing 64.9% by
mass of
titanium carbonitride, 23% by
mass of
tungsten carbide, 8% by
mass of
cobalt, 4% by mass of
molybdenum carbide and 0.1% by mass of
graphene nanosheets to obtain mixed
powder I; mixing 60.9% of
titanium carbonitride, 23% of
tungsten carbide, 8% of
cobalt, 8% of
molybdenum carbide and 0.1% of
graphene nanosheets to obtain mixed
powder II; and S2, the mixed powder I and the mixed powder II are added into a mold layer by layer, three
layers of mixed powder with the
surface layer being the mixed powder II layer and the core layer being the mixed powder I layer are obtained,
spark plasma sintering is carried out, and the gradient multi-layer nano Ti (C, N)-based
metal ceramic is obtained. According to the Ti (C, N)-based
metal ceramic and the preparation method thereof, different
molybdenum carbide mass proportions of the
surface layer and the core layer are controlled, a hard phase enrichment area is formed on the
surface layer, a binding phase enrichment area is formed on the inner core part, the Vickers
hardness can be improved through hard phase enrichment, the
fracture toughness can be improved through binding phase enrichment, and therefore the Ti (C, N)-based metal ceramic with the
hardness and the
fracture toughness is obtained.
