The effects of sintering conditions on microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of mechanical alloyed tungsten heavy alloy were investigated. W, Ni and Fe powders were mechanically alloyed in a tumbler ball mill with milling speed of 75 rpm, ball-to-powder ratio of 20:1 and ball filling ratio of 15%. Mechanically alloyed powders were compacted and solid state sintered at 1300 degreesC for I hour in hydrogen atmosphere. The solid state sintered tungsten heavy alloy was subsequently liquid phase sintered at 1470 degreesC with varying the sintering time from 4 min to 90 min. The solid state sintered tungsten heavy alloy showed fine tungsten particles of 3 mum in diameter and high relative density above 99%. The volume fraction of matrix phase was measured as 11% and tungsten/tungsten contiguity was 0.74 in solid state sintered tungsten heavy alloys. Two-step sintered tungsten heavy alloys showed finer tungsten particles of about 6-15 mum and volume fraction of matrix phase of 16% and tungsten/tungsten contiguity of 0.40. The solid state sintered tungsten heavy alloy exhibited yield strength about 1100 MPa due to a finer tungsten particles, while showed low elongation and impact energy due to a large tungsten/tungsten contiguity. The yield strength of two-step sintered tungsten heavy alloys increased with decreasing the tungsten particle size and volume fraction of matrix.
