The experiments results connected to possibilities of use of Re-Ni alloy powder for tungsten heavy alloys production were presented in the paper. This powder was obtained by nickel (II) perrhenate reduction under dissociated ammonia atmosphere. The optimal conditions for the thermal reduction for nickel (II) perrhenate were determined. The production process of investigated sinters contained, among others, cold isostatic pressing and two-staged sintering. Selected results of microstructure investigation and mechanical properties of obtained sinters were shown. Performed research indicated that the application of nickel (II) perrhenate to manufacture tungsten heavy alloys resulted in material with the microstructure typical of tungsten heavy alloys and characterized by high mechanical properties.

The addition of transition element oxides to tungsten heavy alloys (WHAs) fabricated by powder metallurgy technique provides new materials with higher density and electrical conductivity, which may be adequate in some applications such as kinetic energy penetrators. Additionally, materials with higher electrical conductivity are required for electrical contact applications such as electrical discharge machining (EDM) electrode materials. WHAs were fabricated by compacting its mixed constituents followed by sintering. Ni, Co and Fe are used as binding phases of the tungsten particles and oxides of Zr, Ti and Y are used as oxide dispersing strengthening (ODS) agents of the sintered materials. The results show that all of the chosen factors (i.e., pressure of compaction process, temperature of sintering, type of binding material and type of oxide) have clear effects on all properties of ODS tungsten heavy alloy specimens. The density and electrical conductivity increase with the increase in sintering temperature. Hardness and compression strength were also measured to evaluate the mechanical properties of sintered samples.

WC-8Co cemented carbide specimens were prepared via vacuum sintering. The effects of cold isostatic pressing (CIP) on microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated. The results show that only WC and Co3W3C (γ-phase) were detected by XRD without any else phases, even though Co. Dense WC-8Co cemented carbide samples were obtained and relative density reached over 98%. The pressing method, instead of pressure, took an important role in the mechanical properties of WC-8Co cemented carbide. KIC and TRS of WC-8Co cemented carbide were improved at least 27% and 24%, respectively, by the use of CIP. WC-8Co cemented carbide with excellent mechanical properties (HRA>93.5, KIC>11MPa·m1/2, TRS>870MPa) was obtained by using CIP.
