Control of eta carbide formation in tungsten carbide powders sputter-coated with (Fe/Ni/Cr)

Composite powders of tungsten carbide with variable coating contents of Fe/Ni/Cr based alloys (1–15 wt.%) were prepared by sputtering. The coated powders have revealed a good performance to shape-forming and sintering. However, the presence of nanocrystalline coatings could enhance the formation of a brittle phase during sintering, named g-phase, (M,W)6C. To investigate this effect, the powders...

Toxicity of Tungsten Carbide and Cobalt-Doped Tungsten Carbide Nanoparticles in Mammalian Cells in Vitro

BACKGROUND Tungsten carbide nanoparticles are being explored for their use in the manufacture of hard metals. To develop nanoparticles for broad applications, potential risks to human health and the environment should be evaluated and taken into consideration. OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess the toxicity of well-characterized tungsten carbide (WC) and cobalt-doped tungsten carbide (WC-Co) nanopa...

Optimizing the synthesis of ultrafine tungsten carbide powders by effective combinations of carbon sources and atmospheres

Article history: Received 9 November 2015 Accepted 25 April 2016 Available online 27 April 2016 Nanostructured WC powders can provide technologically attractive properties due to the fine microstructures obtained after sintering. Either W or WO3 powders are used for the industrial production of WC. In both cases, the contact area between carbon and tungsten precursors has a critical influence o...
