In ISO 4499-2, a new section has been added for the quantitative measurement of the WC grain size of hardmetals. ISO 4499-3 and ISO 4499-4 are additiona

ISO 4499-3 and ISO 4499-4 are currently in development. In st

21、andard WC/Co hardmetals the density is generally controlled so that only two phases WC and Co are present. The Co phase is an alloy and contains some W and C in solid solution. The WC phase is stoichiometric. If the composition is either high or low in total carbon content then it is possible to see

22、 a third phase in the structure. For a high C content this is graphite; for a low C content it is eta phase (), typically an M6C or M12C carbide where M is (CoxWy).

30、rom grinding and polishing marks. Care shall be taken to avoid tearing-out of particles, which may lead to a wrong evaluation of microstructure. NOTE There are several methods for preparation of hardmetal surfaces for metallographic examination. Firstly, careful coarse grinding is carried out to rem

31、ove sufficient material to ensure that the true structure is revealed. After grinding with fine diamond-grit wheels, polishing is effected by using diamond paste or diamond powders, of progressively finer grain size down to 1 m, on rigidly supported laps of, for example, thin plastic, thin felt or p

32、aper. A Good Practice Guide1has been written by the UK National Physical Laboratory that gives detailed guidelines on microstructural preparation. Key points from the Good Practice Guide are included in 6.1. ASTM has also prepared a thorough standard on sample preparation that merits study (ASTM B66

33、5)2. 6 Procedure 6.1 Metallographic preparation 6.1.1 General Good metallographic preparation is essential to produce a plane polished sample that when etched reveals the true microstructure of the hardmetal. Bad preparation can lead to grain tear-out, uneven etching and misleading detail in the mic

34、rostructure which will affect any subsequent measurement. Preparation and etching procedures may require toxic or dangerous chemicals. Personnel should be adequately trained, and facilities and precautions as laid down in the relevant safety guidelines in place at the laboratory concerned should be

35、observed. 6.1.2 Sectioning In many cases, the hardmetal sample may have to be sectioned into smaller samples for metallographic preparation. Diamond tooling is normally required to cut hardmetals into smaller samples. There is a wide variety of cut-off machines which use blades with diamond embedded

36、 on the rim of the disc. Fast cutting times are easily achieved. Wire-cutting machines, in which diamond is embedded in a wire, offer a cheaper method. Very fine slices can be obtained using this method but only at a relatively slow rate of cutting. A faster method is electro-discharge machining, bu

37、t sufficiently fast machines are not generally suited to a metallographic preparation facility. 6.1.3 Mounting Mounting of the sample into a resin has several advantages: it is more suitable for automatic preparation, the sample is easier to handle, and the specimen codes or identification can be in

38、scribed or written onto the mount. Cold-setting and thermo-setting resins are available. Thermo-setting powders (such as phenolic or diallyl phthalate powders) require a mounting press in which the sample is placed in a chamber, resin is then added, and is melted under pressure. The cycle time for t

39、hese machines can be quite slow. The advantage is that hazardous chemicals are not used and the resin has an unlimited shelf life. Cold-setting resins (such as epoxy, acrylic or polyester resins) do not require additional equipment apart from the moulds in which the sample is placed and the resin is

40、 poured on top. The resins normally consist of two parts, a monomer and a catalyst. Occasionally a third filler material is used; this may be to increase the hardness or to act as a conductive medium. Various types are available which set in minutes or hours; the quicker-setting material reaches rel

41、atively high temperatures while the slow-setting resin remains cool. Mounting of samples in “quick-setting resins” is faster, whilst cold-setting resin is more economical for batches. However, a drawback is that these resins usually have an associated chemical risk, they have a limited shelf-life an

42、d they shall be stored in cool conditions. DIN EN ISO 4499-1:2010-10 EN ISO 4499-1:2010 (E) 5A further consideration is that, following metallographic preparation of a flat surface, the hardmetal sample may have to be removed from the mount before etching or placing in the SEM. Cold-setting resins c

43、an be quite difficult to remove and may require grinding away from the sample. 6.1.4 Grinding Whichever method is used to obtain a section of a hardmetal sample, it will have considerable surface and subsurface damage that shall be removed. Diamond grinding discs are available from all the main supp

44、liers of metallographic equipment. These come in a range of diamond abrasive sizes and can produce very high rates of material removal from the surface of the sample. They should be used in order of decreasing abrasive size to both remove surface and subsurface damage and to obtain the plane section

45、 of the hardmetal sample which is to be polished. At each stage of grinding, the process should be continued until the surface damage (observed by optical examination without magnification) from the previous stage of preparation is removed, and then continued for the same amount of time to remove su

46、bsurface damage. Typically, for homogenous microstructures, at least 200 m of material (see ISO 3878:1983) should be removed during the grinding process to obtain a section representative of the bulk microstructure. For materials with gradient structures, more care may be needed in controlling the a

47、mount removed. The diamond grinding discs are available in several forms; metal bonded, resin bonded, wire mesh and plastic encapsulated. These vary considerably in cost and longevity of use, the resin bonded being the most durable and expensive. 6.1.5 Lapping Occasionally, a lapping stage may be in

48、corporated into the preparation procedure immediately after grinding. Lapping is normally carried out on a glass, metal, plastic or composite platen to which diamond abrasive is applied. The key features of lapping are the following: the production of a plane surface; an intermediate step between gr

49、inding and polishing; the removal of surface damage without imparting substantial further subsurface damage; relatively high rates of surface removal compared to the same size of diamond abrasive used on a polishing cloth. Several suppliers provide laps of different compositions depending on the hardness of the material to be prepared. However, this stage of preparation may not be necessary if a coarser size of diamond abrasive is used on a polishing cloth as an additional stage. As with the grinding stages, the time of l
