What is Vanadium carbide?
Chemical properties
Crystal. Mohs hardness 2800 kg/sq mm, resistivity 150 μΩ?cm (room temperature).
Physical properties
Black crystals soluble in HNO3with decomposition. Wear resistant film, cutting tools. Resistant to oxidation in air up to 300°C.
The Uses of Vanadium carbide
Vanadium carbide (VC) and niobium carbide (NbC) are also extremely hard refractory materials. VC can be used as an additive to tungsten carbide (WC) to refine the carbide crystals and to improve the property of the cermet. TiC, ZrC, VC and NbC are commercially used in tool bits for cutting tools.
The Uses of Vanadium carbide
Alloys for cutting tools, steel additive.
The Uses of Vanadium carbide
Vanadium carbide (VC) is used to alloy iron to produce high-speed, high-temperature cutting tools for cutting metals and other hard substances.
What are the applications of Application
Vanadium carbide is a material for research in electronics
