What is it?
Chromium Carbide
?
The inorganic metal chromium carbide has a high melting temperature and is highly resistant to corrosion, wear and oxidation. It can be used in high-temperature environments (1000-1100). Because of its exceptional high temperature performance, it’s widely used in thermal spraying to protect metal surfaces and as an additive in cemented carbide industries.
The key features of
Chromium Carbide
Gray powder with metallic shine; Orthorhombic system. Density: 6.68g/cm3. Melting point: 1890. Good wear resistance, corrosion resistance and resistance to oxidation in high temperature environments (1000-1100). It is a part of a metal ceramic. Chromium carbide is strong in high-temperature oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, and thermal properties that are similar to those of steel. It’s an excellent choice for many commercial industries.

The manufacturing of Chromium Carbide
Method for metal chromium pulverization by electrolytic chromium: The carbon noir is crushed with electrolytic chromemium in a proportion of 13.5% – 64% (mass) to form 325 mesh metallic chromium. This is more than the combined carbon content of 11.33%). Dry mixing the raw material with a ball mill. Add 1% to 3.3% of stearic acid to the mold as a lubricant. You should press mold with more than 1T/cChemicalbookm2 of pressure. Place the powder that has been pressed into a graphite crucible or plate. Heat it in a Taman furnace (or an induction heating furnace) to 1500-1700degC. Then, let it cool in a hydrogen stream to make Chromium.
What applications are
Chromium Carbide
1. It can also be used as an addition to cemented caride (such as the tungsten-based cemented caride grain refiner), which is useful in mining, machining, and so on.
2. It can also be used as an additive to welding material. It can be used as a welding rod to cover the Chemicalbook surface of some types of mechanical equipment (such a ball mill, coal mill, jaw plate, etc.). It can be used to increase the service-life of many other equipment.
3. There are many thermal spray materials that can be used in metal surface protection technology. Ding Hong from Chemicalbook edited this information.
4. For chromium carbide ceramics. To form a meltblown coating on ceramics and metal surfaces, coarse-grained chrome carbide can be used. It has the properties of wear resistance, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and more. It is widely used in aircraft engines, petrochemical mechanical devices and other applications to increase mechanical life. It can also be used to spray semiconductor films.
