Background and Purpose
Composite materials consisting of a hard ceramic phase, traditionally tungsten carbide, and a ductile metallic binder phase, most often Cobalt, are generally called hard metals or cemented carbide. Cemented carbides are manufactured through a powder metallurgy processing route - wet milling, spray draying, compaction, and sintering.
Cemented carbide has an attractive combination of properties with high hardness and toughness. To tailor the properties needed for the application e.g. grain size and binder content can be adjusted. Furthermore, additional elements and/or phases can be added to improve the desired properties in new material designs.
Your mission
In this project, you will be investigating new material designs for cemented carbides to further improve the properties of the cemented carbide by adding or replacing different raw materials. In detail, you will investigate the influence of different alloying elements to tailor the desired properties. Within a given test space, design a test matrix, manufacture test batches of material, with our production and innovation lab. Analyse the material with methods e.g., light optical microscopy and electron microscopy.
Design and set up a test plan, in the material design window to investigate.
Evaluate the material and analyse phases / microstructure of the cemented carbide.
Finally, the work will be presented both orally and in writing.
Your profile
You are preferably a master's student within the field of Materials Science, Physics or Chemistry. Previous experience of lab work is meritorious. Since we are a global business, you have excellent communication skills in English, both in writing and in speaking.
Excent
The summer technology period includes up to 12 weeks, starting early June, 2023.
The location is Fagersta.
