YW-Class Tungsten Carbide 1

Similar to tungsten-cobalt and tungsten-titanium-cobalt alloys, tungsten-titanium-tantalum (niobium)-cobalt alloys are widely used hard alloys. Due to their excellent physicochemical properties and strong versatility, they are also known as universal hard alloys or all-purpose hard alloys. From a chemical composition perspective, YW-class tungsten carbide is composed of tungsten carbide (WC), titanium carbide (TiC), tantalum carbide (TaC) or niobium carbide (NbC), and cobalt (Co). Their grades are designated with the code YW (derived from the first letters of the Chinese pinyin for…

Ditungsten Carbide 12

Like tungsten carbide powder (WC powder), ditungsten carbide is also a compound composed of the refractory metal tungsten and the non-metallic element carbon. Its English name is tungsten carbide, with the chemical formula W?C, and it features a hexagonal close-packed (hcp) crystal structure. Due to slight differences in the crystal structures of WC powder and W?C powder, their physical and chemical properties, as well as their applications, are also different. Note: The crystal structure of WC can be either a…
