What are the Methods to Synthesize Tungsten Carbide Nanoparticles?
Several methods can be employed to synthesize tungsten carbide nanoparticles:
Sol-Gel Method: This involves the transition of a solution system from a liquid 'sol' into a solid 'gel' phase, offering a way to create uniform and pure nanoparticles. Mechanical Milling: Using high-energy ball milling to break down bulk tungsten carbide into smaller particles. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): This method involves the deposition of tungsten carbide from vapor phase onto a substrate, allowing precise control over particle size and distribution.
