*Hardness
The hardness of material is defined as the ability to fight against the hard Pressed into surface of the object.Mainly using measurements of Rockwell and vickers. As the principles of the Vickers and Rockwell tests are different, care must be taken when converting from one system to the other.
*Coercive Field Strength
Coercive field strength is a measure of the residual magnetism in the hysteresis loop when the cobalt (Co) binder in grade of cemented carbide is magnetized and then demagnetized. It can be used to assess the status of alloy organization .The finer the grain size of the carbide phase the higher will be the coercive force value .
* Magnetic Saturation
Magnetic Saturation : is the ratio of magnetic intensity to quality . Magnetic Saturation measurements on the cobalt (Co) binder phase in cemented carbide are used by industry to evaluate it’s composition.Low magnetic Saturation values indicate a low carbon level and or the presence of Eta-phase carbide.high magnetic saturation values indicate the presence of “free carbon”or Graphite.
*Density
The Density (specific gravity)of a material is the ratio of it’s volume .It is measured using a water displacement technique.Cemented carbide density decreases linearly with increasing cobalt content for the Wc-Co grades.
*Transverse Rupture Strength
Transverse Rupture Strength (TRS)is the ability of material to resist bending.measured at the breaking point of a material in a standard three point bend test.
*Metallographic Analysis
Cobalt Lakes will bond after sintering , excess cobalt may exist in certain area of the structure.forming the cobalt pool, if bonding phase is incompletely adhesive, there will form some residual pores, Cobalt pools and porosity can be detected by using metallographic microscope.
