Chemical/Particle Analytical Laboratory:
- Atomic Absorption Spectroscope: Elemental analysis of major tungsten carbide elements up to ppm (part per million) level.
- Particle Size Analyzer: Analyze particle size and particle size distribution.
- Surface Area Analyzer: Analyze surface area of powder. Pore size distribution analysis.
- Leco Carbon Analyzer: Analyze carbon content and free carbon in parts. Also analyze oxygen, sulfur and nitrogen.
- Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES): Quantitative elemental analysis of all tungsten carbide elements, including all trace elements, up to ppb (parts per billion) level.
- Coercivity and Mass Spectrometer: Analyze cobalt content, grain size and eta phase.
Production Tungsten Carbide Laboratory:
- Microstructure and Porosity: We use a newly added 5 Mega-pixel digital camera along with a Unitron Versamet® 3 optical microscope (up to 1,000X) to analyze the microstructural features, such as grain size and eta phase, of sintered parts. The porosity measurement is done according to ASTM B-276.
- Magnetic saturation: Analyze cobalt content and grain size.
- Rockwell Hardness: Analyze hardness of sintered parts.
- Density and bulk density
- Hall Flow rate
