Residual stress in cemented carbides
We aim to examine cemented carbide composites, in this case in the form of drill buttons. These composites are hardened before use to build in compressive stresses to prevent crack propagation, but at present it is not possible find out non-destructively what happens in the bulk of the material during hardening, to identify the key components .This is of general interest to understand the mechanisms of the hardening in a composite system. We are specifically applying this to drill buttons, but the material used here is also used in the machining industry and as a potential nuclear shielding material. In addition to increasing understanding of the hardening process, this may feed back to improve device performance. To accomplish this, we plan to use SALSA to assess the residual stress in actual drill buttons.
