The present invention relates to a method of fabricating ultra-fine grain
cermet alloys with a homogenous solid solution grain structure. More
particularly, the invention relates to a method of fabricating an
ultra-fine TiC-base cermet alloy with a homogenous solid solution
structure which does not comprise a core-rim structure in the carbide
grain.The object of the present invention is to provide a method of
fabricating a TiC-base cermet alloy without the core-rim structure.The
above objects of the present invention could be achieved by employing a
conventional sintering process (vacuum sintering) of (Ti,TM)C carbide
obtained from a mechano-chemical synthesis (high energy ball-milling)
from milling the powders of Ti, TM, Ni and Co metals.
