Abstract: WC binderless tungsten carbide (BTC) without metal binder which has high hardness, good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, is widely used in the field of tools, wear resistant parts, etc. and has become a research focus in the field of cemented carbide in recent years. However, due to the absence of the addition of metal binder, the grain growth is easy to occur in the sintering process, the densification is difficult to increase, the requirements of sintering method and process are higher and the toughness clearly inferior to the BTC without metal binder. Therefore, some researchers inhibit grain growth and promote its densification by adding nonmetallic binder and adjusting sintering process, so as to effectively improve the performance of BTC materials without metal binder. In this paper, the application of metal oxides, metal carbides, carbon materials and composite reinforcement to enhance the performance of BTC with metal binder are reviewed.
