Tungsten Carbide/Cobalt Powder (WC/Co Powder) Description
Tungsten Carbide/Cobalt Powder (WC/Co Powder) is a high-quality material consisting of nano-sized tungsten carbide particles embedded in a cobalt matrix. WC alone has good hardness and wear resistance but is a little bit brittle. By adding Co which can hold WC particles together, this unique combination offers excellent mechanical properties, superior hardness, and enhanced wear resistance. The powder is carefully engineered to ensure a uniform distribution of nanoparticles, allowing for precise control in various applications.
