What's so unique about tungsten carbide powder?

What is tungsten carbide powder?
Tungsten carbide powder is a dark gray powder that can dissolve in various carbides, especially in titanium carbide solubility, forming TiC-WC solid melt. 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 properties, manufacturing method, and use are the same as tungsten carbide. Tungsten carbide powder is the main raw material for producing carbide, with a melting point of 2870℃, a boiling point of 6000℃, and a relative density of 15.63 (18℃). Tungsten carbide is insoluble in water, hydrochloric acid, and sulfuric acid and is easily soluble in a mixture of nitric acid-hydrofluoric acid. Pure tungsten carbide is fragile but mixed with a small amount of titanium, cobalt, and other metals can reduce brittleness. Tungsten carbide, used as a steel cutting tool, often adds titanium carbide, tantalum carbide, or their mixtures to improve explosive resistance. Tungsten carbide is chemically stable.
Main uses of tungsten carbide powder
Tungsten carbide powder is mainly used for the production of carbide. In tungsten carbide, the carbon atoms are embedded in the gap of the tungsten metal lattice, which does not destroy the lattice of the original metal, forming the solid gap solution, so it is also called the gap filling (or insertion) compound... Tungsten carbide powder can be made from a mixture of tungsten and carbon in a high-temperature heated environment, and the presence of hydrogen or hydrocarbons can accelerate the reaction. If prepared with tungsten, the product must eventually be a vacuum at 1500℃ to remove the carbon O. Tungsten carbide is suitable for mechanical processing at high temperatures. It can make cutting tools, kiln structure materials, jet engines, gas turbines, nozzles, etc. It can also be used as ceramic metal materials, resistance heating components, etc.
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.
