This paper concerned with SPS (spark plasma sintering), hot pressing of sinter nanometer WC-Co powder and discussed the density, hardness, microstructures and grain sizes of the alloys sintered by different styles. The results showed that SPS could lower the sintering temperature, increased the density and circumscribed the growth of grain size of WC. Hot pressing sintering could produce high density alloys and play well on the grain growth, but its sintering temperature and sintering time were larger than SPS. Besides, the hardness of the sintered cemented alloys that was dependent on the grain size and densification could also be improved by SPS and hot pressing.

WC-10Co-0.8VC nanocrystalline powders were sintered by spark plasma sintering (SPS) and hot pressing sintering (HPS), and the microstructure and properties were compared. Results show that, sintered at 1300°C, the sample prepared by SPS for only 3 minutes has higher density than that prepared by HPS for 60 minutes. SEM and SPM observation shows SPS at 1200°C has a more uniform and finer microstructure, and most of the WC grains are smaller than 100nm. It has a relative density of 95.1%, HV30 of 1887, and KIC of 11.5 MPam1/2. If a suitable sintering parameter is chosen, SPS is a promising consolidation technique to prepare nanocrystalline WC-10Co-0.8VC with improved properties.

Bulk isotropic and anisotropic Nd13.5Fe80.4Ga0.5B5.6 and Nd13.5Fe80.4Ga0.5B5.6/Fe magnets were synthesized by applying spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique. The effect of hot-pressing temperature on the magnetic properties of hot-pressed (HP) and hot-deformed (HD) magnets without additive and with 5% Fe addition was investigated. With increasing sintering temperature for HP magnets, the grain grew gradually. For HD magnets, the optimal magnetic properties could be obtained at hot-pressing temperature 680°C due to the development of desired c-axis texture and uniform microstructure, which resulted from the appropriate and uniform grain size in HP magnets. Fe addition could enhance remanence (Br) and magnetic energy products ((BH)m) of HP and HD magnets. However, the maximum magnetic energy product of HD magnets decreased when hot-pressing temperature was higher than 650°C.
