Abstract
This interdisciplinary work concerns misorientations across various interfaces in spark plasma–sintered (SPSed) WC–Co cemented carbides, as well as how these misorientations affect the intergranular fracture. The whole boundaries in cemented carbides were divided according to the phases on the two sides of the boundary plane, and carbide/carbide grain boundaries were further divided according to the misorientation across the boundary plane. Stereological statistics and five-parameter analysis were comprehensively performed on the concerned boundary types. For Σ2 carbide/carbide boundaries, multiple boundary structures are observed. How Σ2 twist inhibits intergranular fracture and how such boundary structure is formed are analyzed. For random carbide/carbide boundaries, the habit planes that they are terminated by are calibrated, and their responses to intergranular fracture are examined according to their energy anisotropy. For WC/α-cobalt and WC/β-cobalt phase boundaries, misorientations across these boundary planes and the corresponding crack propagation routines are illustrated. On these bases, approaches to improve the fracture strength of SPSed cemented carbides are suggested.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Ceramic Society contains records of original research that provide insight into or describe the science of ceramic and glass materials and composites based on ceramics and glasses. These papers include reports on discovery, characterization, and analysis of new inorganic, non-metallic materials; synthesis methods; phase relationships; processing approaches; microstructure-property relationships; and functionalities. Of great interest are works that support understanding founded on fundamental principles using experimental, theoretical, or computational methods or combinations of those approaches. All the published papers must be of enduring value and relevant to the science of ceramics and glasses or composites based on those materials.
Papers on fundamental ceramic and glass science are welcome including those in the following areas:
Enabling materials for grand challenges[...]
Materials design, selection, synthesis and processing methods[...]
Characterization of compositions, structures, defects, and properties along with new methods [...]
Mechanisms, Theory, Modeling, and Simulation[...]
JACerS accepts submissions of full-length Articles reporting original research, in-depth Feature Articles, Reviews of the state-of-the-art with compelling analysis, and Rapid Communications which are short papers with sufficient novelty or impact to justify swift publication.
