Cemented Carbides

Cemented Carbides covers the whole path of making and testing these hard materials, from producing the raw materials to the last steps of surface finishing and coating. It presents and analyses the basic phase diagrams of WC-based cemented carbides.

The book also describes the technological processes and equipment used at each stage of manufacture, including milling, granulation, pressing, sintering, surface finishing and the deposition of wear-resistant coatings. It closes with the modern techniques and instruments used to control the microstructure and properties of cemented carbide.
