Abstract

Tungsten carbide powder was synthesized by SHS (self-propagating high-temperature synthesis). Except $WO_{3}$, each concentration of raw material ($WO_{3},\;Mg,\;NaCl,\;Na_{2}CO_{3},\;C$) was investigated. Final product was characterized by XRD and SEM. X-ray data demonstrated that the $NaCl+Na_{2}CO_{3}$ combined mixture has superiority in the WC formation process. Single phase and submicrometer WC powder was synthesized at the temperature below $1600^{\circ}C$. The role of sodium salts in combustion process was discussed, and chemical mechanism of WC formation was proposed. WC powder prepared by salt-assisted combustion synthesis has a size $0.2{\sim}3\;{\mu}m$ and low agglomeration degree.
