Abstract
The room temperature adhering strength of combined specimen prepared by adhesion between TiC-19mass%Mo2C-24mass%Ni cermet and WC-(10, 15)mass%Co cemented carbide was mainly studied by transverse-rupture tests. It was found that the main crack generally passed within the cermet region very neighbouring the interfacial layer formed between two sorts of alloys. It was also found that the strength increased with lowering the adhering temperatures. The reason for the above phenomena is discussed.
