Abstract

Electrochemical research is focused on the tungsten extraction during acid electrochemical treatment of WC-Co pseudoalloy in chloride solutions. The target resulted products of the treatment are: tungsten oxide (VI), tungsten powder with a given particle size distribution (2…3 μm). Based on the analysis of kinetics, the mechanism of dissolution of the WC-Co pseudoalloy in a solution of 2.5 mol∙dm-3 HCl and with the addition of HF was proposed. It was found that a well-soluble higher tungsten chloride is formed on the surface of the pseudoalloy, which is eventually hydrolyzed in aqueous solution to form tungsten oxides. The dispersion control levers were investigated and the technological parameters of obtaining tungsten metal powder from low-temperature ionic alloys (NaCl-KCl-CsBr-NaF) were determined, which make it possible to obtain tungsten metal powder of a given particle size distribution. It is stated that the use of tungsten powder (W or WO3) for the modification of aramid fiber can significantly increase the heat resistance of aramid fabric and reduce its wear
