Micromechanics of fracture in WC-Co hardmetals

  • 1. Inst. of Exp. Metall., Slovak Acad. of Sci., Kosice (Czechoslovakia)

Description

A study has been made in WC-Co cemented carbides with grain sizes of 2.1 - 3.6 μm and 13 - 32 vol% Co, of the relationship between the fracture toughness and microstructural parameters and micromechanisms of fracture. Regression analyses have been used to derive empirical relationships between fracture toughness, and the binder spacing, the contiguity and the relative proportions of fracture in the binder phase and between contiguous WC grains
