Abstract

A metal matrix composite composition includes tungsten carbide in an amount of 45 wt % to 72 wt % of the composition. In addition, the composition includes a binder in an amount of 28 wt % to 55 wt % of the composition. The binder includes nickel in an amount of at least 99 wt % of the binder.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A metal matrix composite composition, comprising:
 tungsten carbide in an amount of 45 wt % to 72 wt % of the composition; and   a binder in an amount of 28 wt % to 55 wt % of the composition, wherein the binder comprises:
 nickel in an amount of at least 99 wt % of the binder. 
   
     
     
         2 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the amount of tungsten carbide is 50 wt % to 65 wt % of the composition and the amount of the binder is 35 wt % to 50 wt % of the composition. 
     
     
         3 . The composition of  claim 2 , wherein the amount of tungsten carbide is 55 wt % to 60 wt % of the composition and the amount of the binder is 40 wt % to 45 wt % of the composition. 
     
     
         4 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the binder comprises substantially 0.0 wt % Si and 0.0 wt % B. 
     
     
         5 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the binder comprises 100 wt % Ni. 
     
     
         6 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein at least 50 vol % of the tungsten carbide comprises spherical cast WC/W 2 C. 
     
     
         7 . The composition of  claim 6 , wherein at least 70 vol % of the tungsten carbide comprises spherical cast WC/W 2 C. 
     
     
         8 . An earth boring drill bit for drilling a borehole in an earthen formation, the drill bit comprising:
 a bit body made of the metal matrix composite of  claim 1 .
