Tungsten carbide is a compound composed of tungsten and carbon, molecular formula WC, molecular weight 195.85. It is a black hexagonal crystal with metallic luster, hardness similar to that of diamond, and is a good conductor of electricity and heat. Tungsten carbide is insoluble in water, hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, and easily soluble in nitric acid-hydrofluoric acid mixture. Pure tungsten carbide is fragile, if mixed with a small amount of titanium, cobalt and other metals, it can reduce the brittleness. Used as a steel cutting tool tungsten carbide, often added titanium carbide, tantalum carbide or a mixture of them to improve the anti-explosive ability. Tungsten carbide is chemically stable. Tungsten carbide powder is used in tungsten carbide production materials.
