Development of Creep-Resistant Tungsten Carbide Copper Cemented Carbide

Fine-grained tungsten carbide copper (WC-Cu) cemented carbide was sintered via spark plasma sintering at 1773K using a fine WC powder with a mean particle size of 0.11 mm. The mechanical properties were compared with tungsten carbide cobalt (WC-Co) cemented carbide and a binderless WC-sintered material. The Vickers hardness and fracture toughness obtained by the indentation fracture method for ...

Toxicity of Tungsten Carbide and Cobalt-Doped Tungsten Carbide Nanoparticles in Mammalian Cells in Vitro

BACKGROUND Tungsten carbide nanoparticles are being explored for their use in the manufacture of hard metals. To develop nanoparticles for broad applications, potential risks to human health and the environment should be evaluated and taken into consideration. OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess the toxicity of well-characterized tungsten carbide (WC) and cobalt-doped tungsten carbide (WC-Co) nanopa...

Solubilization of cobalt from tungsten carbide–cobalt powder

Several reviews of the toxicology of cobalt, including toxicokinetic aspects, are available (IARC, 1991; Midtgård & Binderup, 1994; Lauwerys & Lison, 1994; Lison, 1996; Barceloux, 1999). This section will focus on the toxicokinetic data published since the previous IARC evaluation (1991) and potentially relevant for cancer. Particular emphasis will be put on studies that examined the fate of in...
