ʻO ka tungsten carbide kahi hui kemika inorganic nona ka nui o nā ʻātoma tungsten a me ke kalapona. ʻO ka tungsten carbide, i ʻike ʻia hoʻi ʻo "cemented carbide", "hard alloy" a i ʻole "hardmetal", he ʻano mea metallurgic nona ka pauka tungsten carbide (kemika: WC) a me nā mea hoʻopaʻa ʻē aʻe (cobalt, nickel, etc.).

Hiki ke kaomi ʻia a hana ʻia i loko o nā ʻano i hana ʻia, hiki ke wili ʻia me ka pololei, a hiki ke hoʻopaʻa ʻia me a hoʻopili ʻia paha i nā metala ʻē aʻe. Hiki ke hoʻolālā ʻia nā ʻano like ʻole a me nā papa o ka carbide e like me ka mea e pono ai no ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka noi i manaʻo ʻia, me ka ʻoihana kemika, ka ʻaila a me ke kinoea a me ke kai e like me ka hana mining a me nā mea ʻokiʻoki, ka mold a me ka make, nā ʻāpana ʻaʻahu, a pēlā aku

Hoʻohana nui ʻia ka tungsten carbide i nā mīkini ʻoihana, nā mea hana pale ʻaʻahu a me ka anti-corrosion. ʻO ka tungsten carbide ka mea maikaʻi loa e pale aku i ka wela a me ka haki i nā mea paʻakikī āpau.

Hoʻohana nui ʻia ʻo Tungsten carbide (TC) ma ke ʻano he mau alo sila a i ʻole nā ​​apo me ke kūpaʻa ʻana, ka ikaika fractural kiʻekiʻe, ka conductivity thermal kiʻekiʻe, ka co-efficient hoʻonui wela liʻiliʻi. Hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ke apo sila tungsten carbide i nā apo sila wili a me ke apo sila static.

ʻO nā ʻano ʻelua maʻamau o nā helehelena/apo sila tungsten carbide he cobalt binder a me nickel binder.

Ua hoʻolako ʻia nā sila carbide tungsten e pale aku i ka wai i hoʻopuehu ʻia mai ka liki ʻana ma ke koʻokoʻo hoʻokele. Aia ke ala liki i kāohi ʻia ma waena o ʻelua mau ʻili pālahalaha e pili ana me ke koʻokoʻo wili a me ka hale. ʻOkoʻa ka hakahaka ala liki ʻana i ka wā e kau ʻia ai nā maka i nā ukana waho like ʻole e hoʻoneʻe ai i nā maka e pili ana kekahi i kekahi.
