Rare Metals WC Tungsten Carbide Powder Wear Resistant For Cutting Tools

rare metals purity tungsten powder spot goods high quality outlet

Brief introduction

Tungsten carbide powder (WC) is the main raw material for the production of cemented carbide, metallic luster, hardness similar to diamond, as a good conductor of electricity and heat, tungsten carbide insoluble in water, hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, easily soluble in nitric acid - hydrofluoric acid mixture.
Pure tungsten carbide is fragile. If a small amount of titanium, cobalt and other metals are added, the brittleness can be reduced.
Tungsten carbide, used as a tool for cutting steel, is often added to titanium carbide, tantalum carbide or a mixture of them to enhance knock resistance.
Tungsten carbide is chemically stable.

Application

Tungsten carbide powder is mainly used in the production of cemented carbide.Tungsten carbide is suitable for machining at high temperature. It can be used to make structural materials for cutting tools, kilns, jet engines, gas turbines, nozzles, armor-piercing shells, and so on.
