Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a cermet having improved toughness, the cermet including particles each of which has a complete solid-solution carbide of two or more metals selected, including titanium, from among Group IVa, Va, and VIa metals in the periodic table and has a core/rim structure composed of a core region and a rim region, and a binder composed of a metal, wherein the composition of the Group VIa metal in the core region is lower than the composition in the rim region, and the lattice constant in the rim region is larger than that in the core region.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A cermet comprising: particles, each of which has a complete solid solution of TiC and WC which is made from TiO 2 , WO 3 , and graphite, and has a core/rim structure composed of a core region and a rim region, and has a face centered cubic structure; and a binder composed of a metal, wherein an amount of W in the core region is lower than an amount of W in the rim region, wherein an amount of W in an interface between the core region and the rim region is gradually increased from the core region to the rim region, and wherein a lattice constant in the rim region is larger than that in the core region. 2. The cermet of claim 1 , wherein the rim region exhibits a compressive stress state. 3. The cermet of claim 1 , wherein a difference in the amounts of W between the core region and the rim region is 1 at % to 10 at %. 4. The cermet of claim 1 , wherein the binder comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of Ni, Co, and Fe.
