The room temperature hardness and the high temperature hardness of the prepared bulk tungsten carbide material in a sintered state are HV 2258 and HV 1814 respectively, and the average size of WC crystal grains is 1 mu m.
According to the invention, by adding the bismuth component material, as bismuth and nickel can form a bismuth-nickel intermetallic compound, a new hard phase is formed in the high-entropy alloy matrix, and the hard phase has higher hardness and high-temperature hardness, so that the hardness and high-temperature softening resistance of the high-entropy alloy are improved. Thus, for conventional tungsten carbide materials, the hardness of the hard phase formed without the addition of bismuth may not be as great as the overall hardness of the material with the addition of bismuth.
It should be noted that, although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or some of the technical features of the embodiments can be modified or replaced with equivalents by those skilled in the art, but any modifications, equivalents, improvements and the like made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
