High Purity Tungsten Boride WB2 Powder CAS 12007-09-9, 99%

About Tungsten Boride WB2:
Tungsten-boride, is a mixture of tungsten with boron. They are characterized by their high hardness. Vickers hardness is 20GPa of WB or diboride tungsten WB2 and 30GPa of WB4 for loads greater than 3N.
Tungsten boride density is 10.77 and tungsten boride melting point is about 2900degC. It is not a degrader of water, but can degrade aqua regina.
It is made by heating boron-tungsten powders to high temperatures.
Tungsten-boride possesses comprehensive properties including a high melting temperature, high hardness, and chemical stability. It is a superhard, high melting-point material. This material is important for the military as it's bulletproof.
The rich phase diagrams of tungsten-alloys and the structure of the different phases have been changing for more than fifty years.
The highest boride (WB4) has a three-dimensional grid of boron molecules. We combine the thermodynamics stability with the principal calculation and then study the mechanical and thermodynamic properties of a possible structure for the tungsten-carbide system.
The highest boron to identify tungsten must be WB3, composed of two-dimensional plane grids of boron, not WB4, composed of three dimensional grids. It was discovered that the shear modus in the tungsten borate system transformed its energy of formation. It was found that mechanical properties were closely related to thermodynamic stability.
A high temperature and pressure sintering process is used to achieve the dense tungsten biboride. This is due to WB2's free diffusion coefficient. This reduces the amount of tungsten diboride and increases its cost.
The boron content is not easily measurable when preparing WB2 from tungsten or boron powder.
It can also cause hypoborate to form during the sintering phase, and bulk compact material with WB2 is not possible.

How is Tungsten Boride WB2 produced?
1. After mixing and grinding the raw materials tungsten and boran, heat them and react above 1400°C to get tungsten boreide. Continue the reaction to form W2B and finally cool and crush it to obtain the finished product.
2. Tungsten is combined with stoichiometric powder boron at a molar ration of W:B=2 to 1, and sintered under vacuum or in an argon atmosphere between 1200degC and 1300degC, to obtain two tungsten bore.
3. Use the solid-phase method. Tungsten boride can be prepared by combining metal tungsten with boron. The reaction formula can be found below. The stoichiometric metal powder tungsten is mixed with elemental boron, then ground, molded and heated at temperatures above 1400degC. Continue the reaction, resulting in W2B. The product is obtained by cooling and crushing the W2B.

Application of Tungsten Boride - WB2
Wear-resistant layer for wear parts.
WB compounds exhibit high melting points, high hardness, good conductivity, wear resistance as well as high temperature resistance and corrosion. The compounds are also used for structural materials, wear resistant materials, and electrodes. Materials and many other fields. Tungsten boride can be produced through the reaction between metal tungsten (metal tungsten) and element boron (element boron) heated in an electric oven. It has all the properties of the W-B series compounds, and it has a wide range of applications in the future.
The unique coating structure allows for high bonding between layers, as well as a gradual change in the coefficients of thermal expansion and elastic modulus between layers.
2) To produce a hard material made of tungsten Diboride, this method uses a mechanochemical process to synthesize the tungsten Diboride powder in argon, using high-purity W and B powders as raw materials. This method is able to obtain compact tungsten-diboride bulk material by sintering at normal temperatures and pressures. The prepared tungsten Diboride Bulk Material has several excellent properties including good stability, hardness, and neutron absorption. It can be used for a wide variety of purposes, including cutting tools, corrosion-resistant material, and new shielding material.

Tungsten Boride Powder:
As the damp reunion can affect the WB2 dispersion performance, and its use effects, the WB2 tungsten powder must be stored in a dry and cool room. WB2 powder must also not be exposed to stress.
