    摘要: Beta-silicon carbide whiskers of superior uniformity can be formed, either singly or in-situ in a matrix, by heating a source for silicon with a source of carbon (greater than 0 percent but less than or equal to about 60 percent of stoichiometric, with respect to the silicon source) in the presence of a titanium-containing catalyst, such as titanocene dichloride. Advantageously, the titanium catalyst can be applied by drying a solution of the titanium catalyst on the carbon and silicon sources. The titanium, carbon and silicon sources are then heated together, preferably to between about 1800.degree. C. and about 1850.degree. C., resulting in a product containing high quality beta-silicon carbide whiskers. The silicon source can be silicon nitride powder, which can either be substantially converted to free-flowing whiskers, or in the alternative, the silicon nitride powder, carbon source and titanium catalyst can be formed into a conventional ceramic matrix prior to conversion to beta-silicon carbide whiskers, so the whiskers formed therein will serve as a reinforcement for the ceramic matrix.

    摘要: A multi-phase cemented ceramic article, method of making same, and the material thereof is disclosed which is useful for machining and forming of metals, including ferrous metals, titanium, aluminum and other metals. The article and its material preferably includes novel microstructures including platelets, a range of grain sizes which yields superior hardness and other characteristics, and a lower tungsten concentration within the binder phase than has been seen in the prior art. The preferred composition includes ultrafine WC, an ultrafine solid solution of (Ti, Ta, W)C, and a cobalt binder. Platelets are formed in-situ, eliminating the need to add them during manufacture for improving toughness.

    摘要: A method of forming a low level carbon high-density tungsten carbide-containing material includes sintering a preform which contains tungsten carbide powder and has a composition such that the resulting sintered material has at most 6.05 weight percent tungsten-bound carbon based on the total weight of tungsten and tungsten-bound carbon. This low level of carbon may be achieved by, prior to the sintering step, oxidizing the tungsten carbide powder sufficiently to achieve the desired substoichiometric carbon level in the sintered product or by adding a carbon-lowering material selected from the group consisting of tungsten, ditungsten carbide, and tungsten oxide. Optionally, other materials can be present in the preform such as carbon-getter metals and compounds thereof. The carbon-getter metals are those metals of which the carbides thereof are more thermodynamically stable than monotungsten carbide.
