To improve the mechanical properties of WC-Al2O3 composites,the effects of trace amount of CeO2 additives on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the WC-Al2O3 composites prepared by hot pressing were investigated. The results revealed that the WC-Al2O3 composites doped with 0.1% CeO2 possessed refined microstructure and enhanced mechanical properties compared with that of the undoped WC-Al2O3 composites.Trace CeO2 suppressed the decarburization of WC,promoted the microstructural refinement,and improved the interface coherence of the WC matrix and Al2O3. When 0.1% Ce O2 was added to the WC-Al2O3 composites,the effect of CeO2 resulted in the achievement of a relative density of 98.82% with an excellent Vickers hardness of 16.89 GPa,combining a fracture toughness of 9.85 M Pa·m1 /2with an acceptable flexural strength of1 024.05 MPa.
