introduction

Metallographic determination of cemented carbide microstructure is one of the key indicators to judge the internal quality of cemented carbide. In 1983, my country adopted ISO 4499.1978 "Metallographic determination of microstructure of cemented carbide" and formulated GB/T 3488- 1983 Metallographic Determination of Cemented Carbide Microstructure. With the continuous development of my country's cemented carbide industry, the metallographic determination of cemented carbide microstructure has been studied. In.2014, according to the new changes and new requirements of relevant standards at home and abroad, my country adopted ISO 4499- 1.2008 "Metallographic determination of cemented carbide microstructure Part 1.Metallographic photographs and description", formulated GB/T 3488.1-2014 Metallographic determination of cemented carbide microstructure - Part 1.Metallographic photographs and description. In.2018, my country adopted ISO 4499-2. 2008 "Metallographic determination of cemented carbide microstructure Part 2.Measurement of WC grain size", formulated GB/T 3488.2-2018 Metallographic determination of cemented carbide microstructure Part 2.Measurement of WC grain size. ISO 4499-3.2016 Metallographic determination of the microstructure of cemented carbides Part 3.Ti(C,N) and WC cubic carbide-based cemented carbides Metallographic determination of the microstructure of cemented carbide Part 3.Metallographic determination of the microstructure of cemented carbide Metallographic determination of the microstructure of (C, N) and WC cubic carbide-based cemented carbides. In 2022, my country will adopt ISO 4499-4.2016. The Metallographic Determination of Cemented Carbide Microstructure Part 4.Metallographic Determination of Porosity, Uncombined Carbon Defects and Decarburization Phases was established. GB/T 3488.4-2022 Metallographic determination of microstructure of cemented carbide Part 4.Porosity, uncombined carbon defects and decarburization phase Metallographic Determination. GB/T 3488 Metallographic Determination of Microstructure of Cemented Carbide consists of four parts. --- Part 1.Metallographic photographs and descriptions, the purpose is to standardize the metallographic sample preparation and corrosion methods of cemented carbide, is cemented carbide Basic operating standards for metallographic structure measurement and judgment; --- Part 2.Measurement of WC grain size, the purpose is to standardize the measurement method of cemented carbide WC grain and size, the method is recommended to use The intercept method is used and the WC grain size level is defined. The standard unifies the industry's cemented carbide grain size method; --- Part 3.Metallographic determination of the microstructure of Ti(C,N) and WC cubic carbide-based cemented carbides, with the aim of standardizing the carbonitriding Method for measuring the size of hard phase and binder phase in titanium cemented carbide and cemented carbide containing cubic carbide. The recommended method is the intercept method. The measurement of cemented carbide structure size is a supplement to the measurement of cemented carbide structure size. --- Part 4.Metallographic determination of porosity, uncombined carbon defects and decarburized phases. The purpose is to standardize the metallographic porosity and The method for determining the decarburized phase and detailed regulations for reporting grades were made, unifying the detection standards for porosity and carbon-deficient phases within the industry. This document specifies the method of measuring the microstructure of cemented carbide using metallographic photographs, clarifies the instruments and equipment required for the measurement, and describes in detail the Understand the specific steps of metallographic sample preparation, including cutting, mounting, rough grinding, fine grinding, polishing, cleaning, etching, etc., and provide different grain grades of light The microscope and scanning electron microscope photos fully reflect the current detection technology level of various domestic production enterprises, which is convenient for production and suitable for application.
