<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe sintering furnace is a kind of furnace which can make the solid particles of the ceramic green body bond with each other, the grains grow up, the voids (pores) and the grain boundaries decrease gradually. Through the transfer of materials, the total volume shrinks, the density increases, and finally it becomes a dense polycrystalline sintering body with a certain microstructure.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nprinciple of sintering furnace<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nSintering principle of cemented carbide: the bonding phase, mainly composed of metal (CO, Ni), also known as cermet material, is integrated with ceramic phase (based on tic, TAC, NBC) and the temperature is higher than the bonding phase.
