Tungsten Carbide Powder (WC), CAS 12070-12-1

Tungsten Carbide Powder (WC), CAS 12070-12-1

Tungsten carbide (WC) powder is a hard and wear-resistant material that is used in a variety of industrial applications. It is made by heating tungsten powder and carbon black at high temperatures in a vacuum furnace, which produces tungsten carbide powder with a chemical formula of WC.

Tungsten carbide powder is known for its excellent mechanical properties, including high hardness, strength, and toughness. It is commonly used in cutting tools, such as drill bits and milling cutters, as well as in the production of wear-resistant parts, such as nozzles, valves, and bearings.

Tungsten carbide powder is also used in the production of cemented carbide, which is a composite material made by combining tungsten carbide powder with a metallic binder, such as cobalt or nickel. Cemented carbide is used in a wide range of applications, including cutting tools, mining tools, and wear-resistant parts.
