Abstract

The effect of vacuum-sintering temperature (Tvs), ranging from 1390 °C to 1470 °C, on magnetic and mechanical properties of TiC-10TiN-30Ni-6Mo-4C (mol pct) cermet was investigated in the present article. Room-temperature (RT) magnetization and maximum susceptibility decreased with increasing Tvs up to 1450 °C, and then increased. This was mainly attributed to the fact that Ti content in the Ni-based binder phase increased with increasing Tvs up to 1450 °C, suppressing ferromagnetism of the Ni matrix. RT ferromagnetism disappeared at Tvs ≥ 1430 °C. Transverse rupture strength (TRS) reached a peak value at Tvs = 1430 °C, and hardness did not significantly vary with Tvs.
