Tungsten Carbide ( WC ) Nanopowder General Description
This material is a fine powder composed of tungsten carbide particles of approximately 80nm diameters, hexagonal in structure. Acid-resistant, insoluble
in cold water, and possessing a high elastic modulus, tungsten carbide nanoparticles are useful for generally resilient coatings, composites, and similar applications.
Tungsten Carbide ( WC ) Nanopowder Applications
- • Alloys. Due to the inherent hardness of this material, its an ideal component for creating various super fine hard alloys. It’s also of value in
producing certain alloys of tungsten.
- • Nanocomposites. The properties of this material make it valuable in producing certain nanocomposites, particularly those which need to be
exceptionally wear-resistant.
- • Abrasion-resistant. Materials with a need for abrasion-resistance can be enhanced with tungsten carbide nanoparticles as either a component
material for a composite or as part of an abrasion-resistant spray.
- • Wear resistant. The hardness of this material makes it ideal for producing wear-resistant composite materials and coatings.
- • Tools. Various tools which need to be chip-resistant or wear-resistant can be produced using tungsten carbide as a coating or material component,
etc. In particular, this material is widely used in the manufacture of mining equipment.
- • Corrosion-resistant coatings. In addition to value in wear and abrasion resistance, tungsten carbide nanoparticles can also be used to produce
corrosion-resistant coatings.
