1. What is a particulate composite?

2. What is a cermet? What is the role of WC and Co in a cermet?

3. Calculate the density of a cemented carbide, or cermet, based on a titanium matrix if the composite contains 50 wt% WC, 22 wt% TaC, and 14 wt% TiC. (See Example 17-2 for densities of the carbides.)

Example 17-2

Cemented Carbides

A cemented carbide cutting tool used for machining contains 75 wt% WC, 15 wt% TiC, 5 wt% TaC, and 5 wt% Co. Estimate the density of the composite.
