Abstract

In this work micrometric particles of WC and Co were processed by high energy ball milling in a planetary ball mill. We evaluated the phase formation and changes in microstructure of WC-12wt%Co as a result of the following milling parameters: ball-to-powder weight ratio, milling time and speed. The material was characterized by X-ray diffraction (crystalline phases and crystallite size), particle size analysis (average grain diameter), the BET method (surface area), and scanning electron microscopy (powder morphology). The average particle size (D50) and crystallite size were respectively 1.63µm and 13.8nm, for a surface area of 4.709 m2/g, using a ball-to-powder weight ratio of 1:20, a milling time of 5h and a milling speed of 500 rpm.

Keywords

Resumo

Neste trabalho, partículas micrométricas de WC e Co foram processadas por moagem de alta energia em um moinho planetário. Avaliamos a formação de fases e mudanças na microestrutura do WC-12wt%Co como resultado dos seguintes parâmetros de moagem: razão mássica bolas/pó, tempo e velocidade de moagem. O material foi caracterizado por difração de Raios-X (fases cristalinas e tamanho de cristalito), análise granulométrica (diâmetro médio), método BET (área superficial) e microscopia eletrônica de varredura (morfologia do pó). O tamanho médio de partícula e o tamanho de cristalito foram 1.63µm e 13.8nm, respectivamente, para uma área superficial de 4.709m2/g, usando razão mássica bolas/pó de 1:20, tempo de moagem de 5h e velocidade de moagem de 500rpm.
