Abstract
This paper is devoted to the problem of development and optimization of schemes for explosive compaction of mixtures of solid powder materials with metal bond. For this purpose, experiments were conducted on explosive compaction of mixtures of tungsten carbide (WC) and cobalt (Co) using a simple cylindrical compaction system. In addition, a numerical simulation of shock waves propagation in two-phase porous medium WC+Co was carried out. Based on experimental and numerical studies of shock wave propagation, the optimal modes of explosive compaction of two-phase powder media, representing mixtures of solid powder materials with metal bond, were found. It is shown that the most preferable compaction mode for obtaining a uniform durable compact of a mixture of powders WC+Co with ratio 9:1 by volume in axially symmetric scheme with central mandrel corresponds to the detonation velocity of 4.6 km/s followed by sintering.
