Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A process of manufacturing cemented carbide and to a product obtained thereof wherein hex doped WC is subjected to nitrogen before and/or during sintering.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A process of manufacturing a cemented carbide, said process comprising the steps of: a) forming a slurry including a milling liquid, binder metal and hard constituents, wherein said hard constituents include hex doped WC; b) subjecting said slurry to milling and drying to form a powder mixture; and c) subjecting the powder mixture to pressing and sintering, wherein the hex doped WC is subjected to nitrogen before and/or during sintering. 2 . The process of manufacturing a cemented carbide according to claim 1 , wherein the hex doped WC is subjected to nitrogen gas before sintering. 3 . The process of manufacturing a cemented carbide according to claim 1 , wherein the hex doped WC is subjected to nitrogen gas during sintering. 4 . The process of manufacturing a cemented carbide according to claim 1 , wherein the hex doped WC is doped with a transition metal selected from Ta, Nb, Cr and mixtures thereof. 5 . The process of manufacturing a cemented carbide according to claim 4 , wherein said transition metal is Ta and/or Cr. 6 . The process of manufacturing a cemented carbide according to claim 1 , wherein the binder metal is selected from the group of Cr, Mo, Fe, Co and Ni. 7 . The process of manufacturing a cemented carbide according to claim 1 , wherein said binder metal is Co. 8 . The process of manufacturing according to claim 1 , wherein said cemented carbide includes WC and hex doped WC in the range of from 65 to 90 wt %, Co in the range of from 3 to 15 wt % and Ta in the range of from 1 to 5 wt %. and Cr in the range of 0 to 20 wt % . 9 . A process of manufacturing of a cemented carbide cutting tool comprising the steps of: forming a slurry including a milling liquid, binder metal and hard constituents, wherein said hard constituents include hex doped WC; subjecting the slurry to milling and drying to form a powder mixture; and subjecting the powder mixture to pressing and sintering, wherein the hex doped WC is subjected to nitrogen before and/or during sintering. 10 . A cemented carbide obtainable according to the process of claim 1 . 11 . A cemented carbide according to claim 10 which, wherein the cemented carbide is a straight cemented carbide comprising hex doped WC. 12 . (canceled)
