Abstract

The grain size and the grain size distribution are two of the most important factors when tailoring the mechanical properties of cemented carbides. In the present work the effect on the growth behavior when adding some abnormal grains in an initial fine grained powder is studied. It is clearly seen that abnormal grains in a fine grained matrix lead to faster grain growth and a higher average grain size.
