• Chromium Carbide Powder Physical Properties Available:

READE offers various granulations available from lump material down to an APS of 1-5 microns

• Chromium Carbide Powder Nominal Physical Constants:

• Chromium Carbide Powder Typical Applications:

a) Structural applications include bearings, seals, valve seats and orifices. Corrosion resistance makes them candidates for chemical equipment service.

b) Chromium carbide is used as a thermal spray material for protecting the underlying metal surface, and as an additive to corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant materials. It is used as a fine-crystal phase in other sintered carbides, where, like the vanadium carbide, it inhibits growth of submicrometre grains during pressing and sintering.

c) Chromium carbide applications are particularly effective where sliding abrasion is present. For example, in chutes, liners, hoppers, flasks, bucket kits, skid plates, apron feeders, cyclones, fan blades, etc.
