The properties and performance of cemented carbide tools depend not only on the type and amount of carbide but also on carbide grain size and the amount of binder metal. Information on porosity, grain size and distribution of WC, solid solution cubic carbides, and the metallic binder phase is obtained from metallographically polished samples. Optical microscopy and scanning and transmission electron microscopy are employed for microstructural evaluation. Typical microstructures of cemented carbides are shown in Figure 3.

Microstructural evaluation of the composite films was accomplished using two different microscopy techniques POM and AFM. These two techniques gave information at different levels about the texture (morphology), uniformity and topography of the composites. Birefringence measurements and SALS gave complementary information about the degree of molecular orientation in the matrix and fiber orientation in the composites, respectively.

As the X-ray analysis provided interesting insights into the interfadal interactions between the filler surface and the epoxy prepolymer, further analysis of the morphology was carried out by TEM. Microstructure evaluation using TEM is also necessary, as the X-ray diffraction does not provide any information on the...

Polarized light microscopy was used to collect photomicrographs from a number of cross-sectioned samples for microstructure evaluation and to determine glass fiber orientations. Some samples were also cold mounted and examined using microscopy. Comparisons were made for filled samples welded to filled samples, unfilled samples welded to unfilled samples, and filled samples welded to unfilled samples for both US-assisted hot plate welding and hot plate welding without US assist.
