摘要: 金刚石复合材料在加工、钻探等领域应用广泛,提高材料中金刚石骨架的结合强度是重要研究方向。以Co50Ni40Fe10多元合金-碳化物替代纯Co作为粘结相,在高温高压条件下制备了金刚石复合材料,结合热力学计算研究了多元合金和碳化物对材料组织的影响。结果表明:相比于Co,Co50Ni40Fe10多元合金具有更强的促进C原子迁移和扩散的能力,能加快金刚石骨架的形成。高温高压条件下,WC中C含量轻微增加,对金刚石骨架的形成影响不大;TiC轻微失C,能在一定程度上促进金刚石骨架的形成;Cr3C2分解产生的C能促进金刚石骨架的形成。Abstract: Diamond composites are widely used in processing, drilling and other fields, and improving the bonding strength of the diamond skeleton is an important research direction. In this work, Co50Ni40Fe10 multi-element alloy-carbide was used as the binder instead of Co to prepare diamond composites under high temperature and high pressure, and the influence of multi-element alloys and carbides on the microstructure of composites was studied by experiments and thermodynamic calculations. The results show that, compared with Co, Co50Ni40Fe10 multi-element alloy has stronger ability to promote the migration and diffusion of C atoms, which can accelerate the formation of diamond skeleton. Under the condition of high temperature and high pressure, the carbon content in WC increased slightly, which has little effect on the formation of diamond skeleton; TiC lost C slightly, which can promote the formation of diamond skeleton to a certain extent; The C produced by Cr3C2 decomposition can promote the formation of diamond skeleton.
