Abstract The thermodynamic and kinetic databases for multi–component W–C–Co–Ti–Ta–Nb–N cemented carbides were established. The Thermo–Calc software was used to describe the phase composition of alloys during gradient sintering. Based on the established thermodynamic and kinetic databases, the volume fractions of different phases and elemental concentration profiles in the WC– Ti(C, N)–Co, WC–Ti(C, N)–TaC–Co and WC–Ti(C, N)–NbC–Co alloys were simulated by means of DICTRA software. The simulated results are in good agreement with the experimental data. In order to verify the reliability of the thermodynamic and kinetic databases, a gradiently sintered WC–Ti(C, N)–TaC–NbC–Co cemented carbide has been prepared. SEM and EDS were employed to examinate the microstructure and composition in the gradient zone. The gradient zone formation of the WC– Ti(C, N)–TaC–NbC–Co cemented carbides was then simulated by DICTRA, and the simulation results show a good agreement with the experimental results.
