The microstructure and microhardness of the steel bonded carbides were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Rockwell hardometer. Results show that the phases of steel bonded carbides mainly consist of TiC and Fe-Cr-Ni solid solution. The synthesized TiC particles are fine. Most of them are not more than 1 μm. With the increase of sintering temperature, the porosity of TiC/Crl8Ni8 steel bonded carbides decreases and the density and hardness increase, but the size of TiC particles slightly increases. Under the same sintering conditions, the density and hardness of steel bonded carbides with C/Ti atomic ratio 0. 9 are higher than those with C/Ti atomic ratio 1.0. The TiC particles with C/Ti atomic ratio 0. 9 are much finer and more homogeneous.展开更多
