摘要:
A method for making a tungsten-copper composite oxide wherein an amount of an ammonium tungstate and an amount of an oxide or hydroxide of copper are combined without milling to form a mixture. The unmilled mixture is then dehydrated and fired at a temperature and for a time sufficient to form the tungsten-copper composite oxide.
摘要:
A method of making a tungsten-copper composite oxide wherein an amount of an oxide of tungsten and an amount of an oxide of copper are combined to form a mixture, the oxide of tungsten or the oxide of copper, or both, being in a hydrated form. The mixture is then milled, dehydrated and fired at a temperature and for a time sufficient to form the tungsten-copper composite oxide, the time sufficient to form the tungsten-copper composite oxide being at least about one-half the time sufficient to form the tungsten-copper composite oxide from a mixture of tungsten trioxide, WO.sub.3, and cupric oxide, CuO, under substantially similar conditions.

A process is disclosed for producing a sheet of tungsten heavy alloy which comprises forming metal particles of the alloy wherein each metal particle is a uniform admixture of the alloy components, entraining the particles in a carrier gas, passing the particles and the carrier gas into a high temperature zone at a temperature above the melting point of the matrix phase of the particles and maintaining the particles in the zone for a sufficient time to melt at least the matrix phase of the particles and form spherical particles, followed by rapidly and directly solidifying the high temperature treated material while the material is in flight. A slurry is formed of this high temperature treated material and a liquid medium, the liquid medium is removed from the material and a planar cake is formed of the material, the cake is dried, and sintered to a density equal to or greater than about 90% of the theoretical density of the alloy to form the sheet.

A process for forming particulate tungsten alloys from the individual metal sources comprises forming an aqueous solution containing the individual metals for producing tungsten heavy alloys, producing a solid particulate material from the solution and injecting the particle material into a high temperature zone and retaining such material in the high temperature zone for a time sufficient to at least partially melt the metals that are alloying with tungsten while maintaining the temperature of those metals below the boiling point of the lowest boiling metal in the second component. The prealloyed composite powder contains tungsten grains below about 5 micrometers as a discontinuous phase and has a continuous phase of the tungsten and a second component selected from nickel, iron, copper and mixtures thereof.
