CEMENTED CARBIDES

Abstract

Cemented carbides are probably the most successful composite materials ever produced. They are best known for their outstanding wear resistance but many of their unusual properties remain largely unexploited. The author, Research and Development manager of Sandvik Hard Materials Ltd, Coventry, outlines the distinctive characteristics of this range of materials and illustrates their advantages in a wide field of engineering applications.
