Study on Vacuum Sintering of Nanocrystalline W(Cu) Alloy Powders

In powder metallurgy production, molding is the second procedure after powder preparation. Its purpose is to provide prepressed compacts for the next compaction process (such as sintering forging, extrusion hot pressing or hot isostatic pressing, etc.). Sintering of metal powder compacts is one of the main methods for making metal powders into alloy materials. In the sintering process, the compact size and density change as well as the press forming, but the biggest difference is that the connection of the particles in the compact is a mechanical meshing, and the sintered sintered body particles adhere to the agglomerate. The sintering behavior of the green compact during sintering (such as the growth of granule polycrystalline grains, shrinkage of pores, and changes in density, etc.) has a great influence on the performance of sintered compacts after sintering.

The most critical problem in the preparation of nanomaterials by nanocrystalline powder sintering is the control of grain growth in the sintering process and the improvement of the density. Therefore, the study of the sintering behavior of the nanopowder in the green sintering process is the primary problem in the preparation of nanomaterials. The use of new powder metallurgy technologies (such as hot isostatic pressing, explosive consolidation, and electric spark sintering) to prepare nano-solid materials is one of the most concerned issues for material scientists. Based on the study of W-Cu mechanical alloying and the cold press forming of nanocrystalline W (Cu) alloys, the author further studied the sintering behavior of nanocrystalline W (Cu) alloys during vacuum sintering.

1 Experimental method 1.1 Sample Preparation First, the pure W powder and pure Cu powder (according to chemical formula W70CU30) were mixed and ball-milled with a ball-to-bulb ratio of 10:1. After milling for 50 hours, nanocrystalline W (Cu) alloy powder was obtained; then 10 g of fine powder was subsequently added. Molding (approx. 0.5cm400c, protected by argon atmosphere). After reaching the predetermined sintering temperature, heat for 30 minutes. Finally, the vacuum furnace tube is quenched and cooled.

SEM analysis and density and hardness tests.

1.2 The main experimental equipment stand S-530 SEM; HX-200 microhardness tester.

2 The experimental results and analysis are the curves of the density, hardness and sintering temperature of the sintered body obtained at different vacuum sintering temperatures. It can be seen that: As the sintering temperature increases, the density of the sintered body first decreases, and then gradually increases. This phenomenon occurs because the sintered compact is prepared using the cip process. In order to prevent high-pressure oil from infiltrating into the powder compact and affect the phase change in the sintering process, a method of sealing with a latex sleeve is adopted. However, this sealing method makes it impossible for the gas in the jacket and between the powder particles to escape during the CIP molding process. A part of the gas is trapped in the powder compact (the density of the CIP compact is about 75%). As the sintering temperature increases, the closed gas inside the powder body will expand and escape the sintered body, causing a decrease in the density of the sintered body.

The figure is a SEM photograph of the sintered body after sintering at different sintering temperatures. In (a), the pore-induced powder loose state can be clearly seen; (b) shows that at 500C, the powder particles inside the sintered body are still in an "independent" mechanically-meshed state and no particles are generated. Melting between. In the middle, when the temperature is raised to 800C, the density of the sintered body increases, and its density can reach 77%. This shows that the residual gas inside the powder has escaped, and at the same time, melting phenomenon occurs between the powder particles.

Although the melting point of pure W metals is as high as 3410C, the melting point of W-based alloys is mostly around 3 000C, but when the metal powder particles

Ultra Audio Heating Equipment

Superaudio induction heating equipment is mostly used for surface quenching of industrial metal parts. It is a kind of metal heat treatment method that makes the workpiece surface generate a certain induced current, quickly heat the surface of parts, and then quickly quench. Super audio induction heating equipment, that is, induction heating of the workpiece, in order to quench the surface of the equipment.
The principle of super audio induction heating equipment: it is the use of high frequency current flow direction is wound into a ring state or the shape of the heating induction coil, high frequency induction is usually made of red copper hollow pipe. A powerful magnetic beam that generates a transient change of polarity in a high-cycle induction coil places the metal in need of heat treatment in a high-frequency coil, and the magnetic beam penetrates the entire heated metal object. In the interior of the induction heating object and the induction heating current in the opposite direction, the corresponding strong eddy current. Because there is resistance in the induction heating metal, so strong joule thermal energy is generated, so that the temperature of the induction heating object rises rapidly, so as to achieve the purpose of heat treatment. Therefore, super audio induction heating equipment in the industry, can also be called: high frequency induction heating equipment; High and medium frequency induction quenching equipment; Induction diathermy equipment; High frequency quenching machine, high frequency induction heating machine, high frequency welding machine.
Performance and characteristics of super audio induction heating equipment:
Fast heating: the fastest heating speed is less than 1 second, (the speed can be adjusted and controlled)
Wide heating: can heat all kinds of metal workpiece (according to the different shape of the workpiece to replace the detachable induction ring)
Easy to install: connect the power supply, the induction ring and the water pipe can be used; Small size, light weight, very easy to use
Easy to operate: It can be learned in minutes
Quick start: heating can be started after the water is connected to the electricity
Less power consumption: about 70% power saving than the old vacuum tube high IF equipment, the smaller the workpiece, the smaller the power consumption
Good effect: heating is very uniform (can also adjust the density of induction ring, so that each part of the workpiece to obtain their own required temperature), fast heating, less oxide layer, no waste after annealing
Power adjustable: stepless adjustment of output power
Full protection: with over voltage, over current, over heat, water shortage and other alarm instructions, and automatic control and protection
