Abstract The effect of sintering temperature and holding time on the microstructures and mechanical properties of WC–10%Co cemented carbide during spark plasma sintering process was investigated. The results indicated that the densities and hardness were enhanced with the increase of sintering temperature from 1200℃ to 1350℃. The densities and hardness enhanced first and then decreased with the increase of holding time from 3min to 9min at 1350℃. The density of cemented carbide arrived maximum value of 99.3%, as well as the hardness of 2212HV at the sintering parameters of 1350℃ and 6min. The three-edged tool with high quality was sintered at the optimum parameters. The density and harness of the tool were 99.2% and 2232HV, respectively.
