Tungsten carbide yog ib qhov chaw muaj cov tungsten thiab carbon. Nws yog ib qho siv lead ua xim dub uas muaj xim hlau ci. Nws txoj kev ua siab tawv yog zoo li lub pob zeb diamond. Nws yog ib qho zoo neeg siv hluav taws xob thiab hluav taws xob. Tungsten carbide yog cov dej hauv dej, hydrochloric acid thiab sulfuric acid, thiab yooj yim yaj hauv cov nitric acid - Nyob rau hauv cov kua qaub ntawm hydrofluoric acid, ntshiab tungsten carbide tsis taus. Yog tias ib qho me me ntawm titanium, cobalt, lossis lwm yam hlau ntxiv lawm, brittleness yuav txo. Tungsten carbide siv los ua ib lub cav ntoo feem ntau muaj xws li titanium carbide, niobium carbide, los yog sib xyaw ntawm nws. Yuav kom txhim kho txoj kev tiv thaiv tsis muaj zog, cov khoom siv tshuaj ntawm tungsten carbide yuav ruaj khov. Lub tungsten carbide hmoov yog siv rau cov tawv alloy cov ntaub ntawv ntau lawm.
