2. Tungsten carbide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungsten_carbide

   Tungsten carbide (chemical formula: WC) is a chemical compound (specifically, a carbide) containing equal parts of tungsten and carbon atoms. In its most basic form, tungsten carbide is a fine gray powder, but it can be pressed and formed into shapes through sintering for use in industrial machinery, cutting tools, chisels, abrasives, armor-piercing shells and jewelry.

3. Tantalum hafnium carbide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tantalum_hafnium_carbide

   Tantalum hafnium carbide is a refractory chemical compound with a general formula Ta x Hf y C x+y, which can be considered as a solid solution of tantalum carbide and hafnium carbide. It was originally thought to have the highest melting of any known substance but new research has proven that hafnium carbonitride has a higher melting point.

4. Titanium carbide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_carbide

   Titanium carbide, Ti C, is an extremely hard ( Mohs 9–9.5) refractory ceramic material, similar to tungsten carbide. It has the appearance of black powder with the sodium chloride ( face-centered cubic) crystal structure . It occurs in nature as a form of the very rare mineral khamrabaevite ( Russian: Хамрабаевит) - (Ti,V,Fe)C.

5. Tungsten disulfide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungsten_disulfide

   Tungsten disulfide is an inorganic chemical compound composed of tungsten and sulfur with the chemical formula WS 2. This compound is part of the group of materials called the transition metal dichalcogenides. It occurs naturally as the rare mineral tungstenite. This material is a component of certain catalysts used for hydrodesulfurization and ...

6. Cemented carbide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cemented_carbide

   Cemented carbide. Circular saw blade with tungsten-carbide inserts. Cemented carbides are a class of hard materials used extensively for cutting tools, as well as in other industrial applications. It consists of fine particles of carbide cemented into a composite by a binder metal. Cemented carbides commonly use tungsten carbide (WC), titanium ...

7. Armour-piercing ammunition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armour-piercing_ammunition

   Armour-piercing rifle and pistol cartridges are usually built around a penetrator of hardened steel, tungsten, or tungsten carbide, and such cartridges are often called "hard-core bullets". Rifle armour-piercing ammunition generally carries its hardened penetrator within a copper or cupronickel jacket, similar to the jacket which would surround ...
