WC-Co cemented carbides are widely applied in industry which include mining, grinding and metal cutting tools.  Its high hardness and toughness give its widely industrial applications. The microstructural scale is a major to influence its mechanical properties. The hardness can be enhanced by with smaller carbide grain size. The common grain size of WC-Co ranges within l-10 pm.

Tungsten copper is a material with high electricity conductivity, when using for resistance welding, the material is bonded with copper hand.

Tungsten carbide (WC) has been widely applied as integral composition of hardmetal, or cemented carbide. Cemented carbides are composite materials consisting of a hard phase (WC) and a metal, usually Co, which binds the WC grains. The composition of the material (amount of Co) mostly influences their mechanical properties. The greater the Co content the tougher and softer the material is. Hardmetal is used for cutting, drilling and wear resistant pieces.

In recent years, ultrafine tungsten powders have gained attention owing to their excellent characteristics. They have been added to hard metals and alloys with superior hardness and wear resistance.
