About Tungsten Boride WB2:
Tungsten-boride consists of tungsten (tungsten) and boron. They are characterized by their high hardness. Vickers hardness is 20GPa of WB2 and 30GPa of WB4 tungsten diboride.
Tungsten boride density is 10.77 and tungsten boride melting point is about 2900degC. It is not a degrader of water, but can degrade aqua regina.
The powders of boron, tungsten and other metals are heated at a high temperature.
Tungsten-boride possesses comprehensive properties including high melting points, high hardness, and chemical stability. This new material is superhard and has a very high melting point. This material is important for the military as it's bulletproof.
The rich phase diagrams of tungsten-alloys and the structure of the different phases have been changing for more than fifty years.
The highest boron-containing boride (WB4) has a three dimensional grid of boron molecules. We combine the thermodynamics stability with the principal calculation and then study the thermodynamics stability and mechanical properties.
The highest boron to identify tungsten must be WB3 which is composed of plane boron molecules in two dimensions, and not WB4 which is composed of grids of three-dimensional boron molecules. It was discovered that the borate system's shear modulus transformed the energy of its formation. It was found that mechanical properties were closely related to thermodynamic stability.
A high-temperature, high-pressure sintering process is used to achieve the dense tungsten diboride due to WB2's free diffusion coefficient. This reduces the amount of tungsten diboride and increases its cost.
The boron content is not easily measurable when preparing WB2 from tungsten or boron powder.
It can also cause hypoborate to form during the sintering phase, and compact bulk materials with WB2 being the main phase will not be possible.

How is Tungsten Boride WB2 produced?
1. After mixing and grinding the raw materials tungsten and boran, heat them and react above 1400°C to produce tungsten boreide. Continue the reaction to form W2B. Cool and crush this product.
2. Tungsten powder and stoichiometric boran powder are mixed at a ratio of 2:1 in a vacuum atmosphere or an argon environment at temperatures between 1200degC and 1300degC, to form two tungsten boreides.
3. Use the solid-phase method. Tungsten boride can be prepared by combining metal tungsten with boron. The reaction formula can be found below. The stoichiometric metal powder tungsten is mixed with elemental boron, then ground and molded. It is heated and reacted above 1400degC in order to produce tungsten Boride. Continue the reaction, resulting in W2B. The product is obtained by cooling and crushing the W2B.

Applications Tungsten Boride
Wear-resistant layer for wear parts.
WB compounds exhibit high melting points, high hardness, good conductivity, wear resistance as well as high temperature resistance and corrosion. The compounds are also used for structural materials, wear resistant materials, and electrodes. Materials and many other fields. Tungsten boride can be produced through the reaction between metal tungsten (metal tungsten) and element boron heated in an electric oven. It possesses the excellent properties of WB series compounds, and has wide application prospects in future.
1) Prepare the workpiece with the tungsten rich coating. This includes a workpiece base, a tungsten layer and a gradient layer of tungsten.
2) To produce a hard material made of tungsten, diboride is first synthesized at room temperature using tungsten powder (W) and boron powder (B). Then, in an argon atmosphere under a protective environment, high-temperature densification is used to achieve a bulk material. The method is able to obtain a compact tungsten-diboride material by sintering at normal temperatures and pressures. The tungsten-diboride bulk material is characterized by excellent properties including good stability, hardness and neutron absorption. It can be used for a variety applications, including cutting tools, new shielding materials, and corrosion-resistant material.

Tungsten Boride Powder:
As the damp reunion can affect WB2 dispersion, and its use, the powder must be stored in a dry and cool room. WB2 powder must also not be exposed to stress.
