1. Mechanical & Physical Properties

Key Takeaways:

• 2× Harder than alumina, 3× harder than steel – Minimal wear in abrasive environments.

• Highest density – Delivers superior kinetic energy for efficient grinding.

• Exceptional compressive strength – Withstands high-load milling.

2. Wear & Durability Performance

Real-World Example:

• In cement ball mills, WC media lasts 2+ years vs. steel’s 1–2 months.

3. Chemical & Thermal Resistance

Best For:

• Wet grinding of abrasive slurries (e.g., mining ores).

• Organic solvents (no chemical reaction).

4. Grinding Efficiency Metrics

• Particle Size Reduction: Achieves nanoscale fineness (D90 < 100nm) in high-energy mills.

• Throughput: 30–50% faster than alumina/zirconia due to higher density.

• Contamination Risk: Near-zero (critical for battery materials, electronics).

Optimal Applications:

• Mining: Ore pulverization (gold, copper).

• Ceramics: Nano-powder production.

• Paints/Inks: Color-intensive grinding.

5. Industry-Specific Advantages

FAQ

1. Is tungsten carbide media brittle?

• High compressive strength (4.5–6 GPa) but can chip under direct impact (e.g., hammer mills).

• Best for ball/attritor mills with controlled impacts.

2. What is the maximum operating temperature?

• Cobalt-Bound (WC-Co): Up to 500°C (avoid oxidation).

• Nickel-Bound (WC-Ni): Up to 600°C.

3. How to minimize contamination risks?

• Use nickel-bound WC for acidic/alkaline slurries.

• Opt for high-purity (>99.5%) WC for battery/electronic materials.
