A low melting point alloy is used to sinter metal carbide particles. The alloy is a eutectic-like alloy formed from a binding metal such as iron, cobalt or nickel, in combination with vanadium and chromium. The alloy is preferably formed by forming two separate alloys and blending these together. The first alloy is formed by spray drying together a solution of a binding metal salt such as a cobalt salt with a solution of a chromium salt. The formed particles are then carburized to form a cobalt-chromium-carbon alloy. A separate vanadium alloy is formed in the same manner. The two are combined to establish the amount of chromium and vanadium desired, and this, in turn, is used to sinter metal carbide parts. This permits sintering of the metal carbide parts at temperatures less than 1250° C and in turn significantly inhibits grain grown without a significant decrease in toughness. It is particularly adapted to form carbide products wherein the carbide grain size is as low as 120 nanometers.
