What is tungsten carbide powder?
Tungsten carbide powder is a dark gray powder that can dissolve in various carbides, especially in titanium carbide solubility. Another compound of tungsten and carbon is ditungsten carbide, with chemical formula W2C, a melting point of 2860℃, a boiling point of 6000℃, and a relative density of 17.15. Its nature, manufacturing method, and use are the same as tungsten carbide powder. Tungsten carbide has good electrical and thermal conductivity. Adding titanium, cobalt, and other metals into the tungsten carbide powder can reduce brittleness. Steel cutting tools made with it, adding titanium carbide, tantalum carbide, or their mixtures, can improve explosive resistance.
Main uses of tungsten carbide powder
Tungsten carbide powder is mainly used for the production of carbide. In tungsten carbide powder, the carbon atoms embedded in the tungsten metal lattice gap do not destroy the original metal lattice, the formation of a solid gap solution, so also called gap filling (or insertion) compound, tungsten carbide is suitable for mechanical processing at high temperature, can make cutting tools, furnace structure materials, jet engine, gas turbine, nozzle, etc.; tungsten carbide and metal tungsten powder after smelting to cast tungsten carbide alloy, used for wear-resistant parts or products surface pile welding, can extend the service life.
Toxicity of tungsten carbide powder
Tungsten dust can cause peribronchitis, closed bronchiolitis, and atrophic emphysema. Tungsten carbide can cause the hyperplastic reaction of the lymphoid tissue cells in the lung and gradually appear sclerosis. The blood vessel wall was thickened and homogenized. People exposed to tungsten carbide dust at work have gastrointestinal dysfunction, kidney stimulation, and catarrhal inflammation in the upper respiratory tract.
Price of tungsten carbide powder
The different price of tungsten carbide powder purity is also different. The market price of tungsten carbide powder is in the process of dynamic change. The price of tungsten carbide powder can be found on our company's official website. If you need it, you can ask us at any time.
