Tungsten Oxide

Because the grain uniformity of hard alloy mainly depends on the particle size distribution of WC powder, the particle size distribution of WC powder is hereditary in tungsten powder . Therefore, the preparation technology of tungsten powder and tungsten carbide powder by submicron size and narrow size is very important. The key technical indexes of fine grain, submicron, ultrafine or nanocrystalline cemented carbide for WC powder are the purity, particle size and particle size distribution, and it is clearly stipulated that there is no type of type III coarse in WC powder. Some scholars have adopted the following technical schemes to prepare submicron tungsten powder or tungsten carbide powder, including the following steps: (1) Ammonium paratungstate (APT) is pyrolyzed to ammonium metatungstate (AMT) and dissolved in ammonia solution or deionized water and filtered to obtain ammonium tungstate solution, or using ammonium paratungstate (APT) production line after ion exchange or cryst...

Tungsten powder is mainly used to manufacture tungsten filament for incandescent lamp, inert gas shielded arc welding and atomic hydrogen welding electrode etc.. Submicron tungsten powder has the advantages of fine particle, well-developed surface, high activity, it is not as stringent as the preparation of nano tungsten powder, and the application range is better than ordinary tungsten powder, so the application scope is more and more widely.  There are many main methods for preparing submicron tungsten powder at home and abroad: they are high-energy ball milling, dry atmosphere reduction, violet tungsten hydrogen reduction, molten salt electrolysis and plasma technology, etc. There are still many shortcomings in the preparation of submicron tungsten powder, such as time consuming, energy consumption, low production efficiency, high production cost, and difficult to realize industrial production. So the next to introduce an innovative submicron tungsten powder preparation method ...
