Micro Tungsten Carbide FAQs

Q1: How is Micro Tungsten Carbide (WC) Powder produced?

A1: Micro Tungsten Carbide (WC) Powder is produced through a high-temperature reaction between tungsten (W) and carbon sources such as graphite. This reaction results in the formation of tungsten carbide (WC), which is then ground to achieve the desired particle size and purity. The powder is carefully processed to ensure uniformity and high performance in a range of applications.

Q2: Is Micro Tungsten Carbide (WC) Powder hazardous?

A2: Tungsten carbide powder is generally not considered highly toxic but can be harmful if inhaled in large quantities or if it comes into contact with the eyes or skin. As a precaution, always use proper PPE, such as dust masks, gloves, and goggles, when handling the powder.

Q3: Can Micro Tungsten Carbide (WC) Powder be customized?

A3: Yes, Micro Tungsten Carbide (WC) Powder can be customized according to specific application needs. Customizations may include adjusting particle size, purity levels, or packaging. Please contact our sales team to discuss your requirements and receive a tailored solution.
