Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Eutectic cermet materials include at least two carbides and a refractory metal, wherein the carbide is selected from the group of TiC, VC, ZrC, HfC, WC, NbC and TaC, and the refractory metal is tungsten. The disclosed eutectic cermet material prepared is by smelting the carbide and the refractory metal together at a temperature lower than melting temperatures of the carbide and the refractory material. The melting temperature lowered by forming a eutectic composition is to prepare the eutectic cermet materials having a fine lamellar structure. The prepared eutectic cermet materials improve hardness and toughness at use.
