| Abstract |
WC powder was synthesized from WO_3 by Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis process(SHS). The effects of carbon, mole ratio of reducing agent, mole ratio of carbon, and pellet size were investigated in the present study. By optimizing the synthesis conditions, it was possible to fabricate WC powders without secondary phases such as W, W_2C. To remove residual impurities and free carbon, acid leaching and roasting were carried out. Microstructural, compositional and structural characterization of products were done by Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM), ICP and X-Ray Diffractometer, respectively. |
