Abstract

High-temperature tungsten carbides — cubic modification β-WC1-x and hexagonal modification W2C1-x — were obtained under conditions of cumulative explosion. Conical linings with an opening of 30° prepared from mixtures of finely disperse powders of tungsten and graphite were used for synthesis. The known crystal structures of tungsten carbides are analyzed and their nomenclature is refined. The presence of nitrogen and oxygen in the reaction zone considerably changes the phase composition. Phases with unit cell parameters substantially deviating from literature data have been obtained.
