The tungsten carbide powder (WC) market is booming, with broad prospects in high-end application fields

2024-05-08 14:02:27  News

Tungsten carbide powder is a crystal formed by the incubation of metallic tungsten and non-metallic carbon under specific conditions. It is a highly hard ceramic material with excellent wear resistance and high-temperature stability. The appearance of WC powder is black particle powder, with a melting point of about 2870 ℃. The manufacturing process of WC powder is based on tungsten powder and carbon powder as raw materials, mixed by a ball mill, and then subjected to chemical reactions under high temperature and pressure conditions to generate tungsten carbide powder. According to the different particle sizes, WC powder can be divided into micrometer tungsten carbide, submicron tungsten carbide, sub-nanometer tungsten carbide, and nanometer tungsten carbide.
