Role of the Binder Phase in Cemented Refractory Alloys

Abstract

This 1950 report studied the role of the binder phase in cemented refractory alloys has been investigated with primary emphasis on the Wolfram Carbide (or Tungsten Carbide, WC)-Cobalt alloys. One aspect of the work has been to prepare a reasonably complete ternary phase diagram of the system W-Co-C. This made it possible to show what phases exist at a sintering temperature of 1400 C, and how these phases react on heating and cooling.
