Tungsten carbide is widely used in manufacturing cutting tools used in various machineries. Owing to their high resistance to abrasions, there is a huge demand for the chemical for manufacturing cutting tools. Tungsten carbide cutting surfaces are used in the machineries through material such as stainless steel and carbon steel. 

Tungsten carbide is known to readily dissolve in diluted hydrogen peroxide. Tungsten carbide has a boiling point at 6,000oC and melting point at 2,870oC. Tungsten carbide has a low electric resistivity.

This press release was orginally distributed by SBWire

Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/11/2015 -- Tungsten carbide is an inorganic chemical compound which is represented using the chemical formula WC. Historically, tungsten carbide is referred to as wolframite ore. Tungsten carbide comprises of equal parts of carbon and tungsten atoms. In its most basic form tungsten carbide is usually available as a fine gray powder. Tungsten carbide powder is easily pressed to form different shapes for use in abrasives, cutting tools, armor-piercing rounds, industrial machinery, instruments, jewelry and other tools. Tungsten carbide is about two times stiffer than steel.

Tungsten carbide is known to be much denser than steel or titanium. Tungsten carbide has a stiffness of about 550 GPa as per measured using Young's modulus. Tungsten carbide's hardness is easily comparable with ruby, sapphire or corundum. Tungsten carbide can be polished or finished using abrasives that have superior hardness. Tungsten carbide is usually polished using cubic boron nitride in the form of wheels, powder and compound.

Tungsten carbide is oxidized within the temperature of 500-600oC. Tungsten carbide is resistant to acids however; it gets attacked by hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid mixtures above room temperature. Tungsten carbide also reacts with fluorine gas at room temperature and chlorine gas at temperature above 400oC. However, tungsten is highly unreactive to dry hydrogen up to its melting point. Tungsten carbide is known to readily dissolve in diluted hydrogen peroxide.

'One Hundred and Eighty' will see darts stars team up with skilled members of the public to compete with each other for a big-money prize. The programme will combine the drama of a sporting event with the excitement of a game show and will air to Sky customers in the UK and Ireland this September.

Inspired by, and named after, the top score you can achieve on a dartboard, One Hundred and Eighty will feature appearances from 16-time world champion Phil Taylor, world No 1 Michael Van Gerwen and current world champion Gary Anderson as they play to determine a prize fund at the start of each show. They will then be paired into teams with lucky members of the public who will compete for the chance to win the prize.

Hosted by Davina McCall, the two teams will go head-to-head in a series of darts-based games and traditional legs of 501. One team will go through to play the final game hoping to take home the cash prize.

Professional darts commentator Rod Studd and cricketing legend Freddie Flint off will provide electrifying commentary to the proceedings and keep tabs on the all-important score.

Tungsten darts are the most common dart among professional players, because tungsten darts are made of high-density metal- tungsten, so tungsten darts can be smaller than other material darts (in the same weights).

The German venue has previously hosted the PDC's European Championship, but will host the European Tour for the first time from September 11-13 as 48 players compete in the internet-streamed tournament.

Three weekends of PDC (Professional Darts Corporation) action remain before the cut-off, with two European Tour events to be followed by a Players Championship double-header.

September's action kicks off with the European Darts Trophy in Muelheim, Germany from September 11-13, as 48 players compete at the RWE Sporthalle across three days for £115,000 in prize money.

The European Darts Matchplay will then be held from September 18-20 at the Olympiahalle in Innsbruck, as the European Tour heads to Austria for the year's eighth event.

The action then returns to the UK for Players Championship events on September 26 & 27 at the Barnsley Metrodome, which are the final tournaments being played before the cut-off for the 32-player World Grand Prix.

The leading 16 players from the PDC Order of Merit will qualify by right, alongside the leading 14 non-qualified players from the PDC ProTour Order of Merit and the top two Irish/Northern Irish players from the PDC ProTour Order of Merit.

Currently, Raymond van Barneveld - a former World Grand Prix finalist - holds the 16th position on the PDC Order of Merit, holding a £4,250 advantage over Vincent van der Voort, with Justin Pipe and Stephen Bunting also bidding to break into the world's top 16.

Van der Voort, Pipe and Bunting would, though, be amongst the ProTour Order of Merit Qualifiers, alongside Jelle Klaasen, Benito van de Pas, Mensur Suljovic, Gerwyn Price, John Henderson, Steve Beaton, Andrew Gilding, Keegan Brown, Jamie Lewis, Mark Webster and Joe Murnan.

Jamie Caven and Kyle Anderson are also in the hunt for qualifying places, with Northern Ireland's Daryl Gurney and Ireland's William O'Connor in line to claim the "home" qualifying places.

The World Grand Prix will be held at the Citywest Hotel in Dublin from October 4-10, with the tournament famously featuring the unique format which sees players need to both begin and end each leg with a double.

Tungsten darts become the most popular darts among professional players, because tungsten darts are made of high-density metal, so they can be smaller than darts with other material. Besides, tungsten darts have delicate knurling, which make them worthy of being collected.
