About Tungsten Silicide WSi2 Powder :

Structure of tungsten silicide

Tungsten silicide is a chemically bonded compound in which tungsten and silicon atoms form a chemical bond by sharing electrons. This compound has a specific crystal structure in which tungsten atoms form a hexagonal close-packed structure, while silicon atoms fill the voids created by tungsten atoms. This structure makes tungsten silicide have a high hardness and melting point.

The nature of tungsten silicide

Physical properties: Tungsten silicide is a hard alloy with high hardness, high melting point, and good electrical and thermal conductivity. Its density is more significant, about equal to the thickness of tungsten, but its melting point is much higher than tungsten. In addition, tungsten silicide also has good wear resistance and oxidation resistance.

Chemical properties: Tungsten silicide has high chemical stability and cannot readily react with acids, bases, and other substances. However, at high temperatures, tungsten silicide may undergo oxidation reactions, releasing oxides of silicon and tungsten.

Production Method of Tungsten Silicide WSi2 Powder ：

High-temperature reduction process

The high-temperature reduction method is commonly used to prepare tungsten silicide, which is to reduce tungsten and silicon oxides or halides at high temperatures to prepare tungsten silicide. The specific steps are as follows:

Tungsten and silicon oxides or halides are mixed proportionately to make raw materials.

The raw material is put into a high-temperature reduction furnace, and the reduction reaction is carried out at a high temperature of about 1500℃ or more.

During the reaction, oxygen or halogen gas is consumed to form tungsten silicide and other by-products.

The resulting tungsten silicide is removed from the furnace for cooling and grinding.

The stoichiometric ratio and physical properties of tungsten silicide can be adjusted by controlling the raw material ratio, reaction temperature, and time.

Chemical vapor deposition method

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a commonly used method for preparing inorganic compounds. The technique is to pass gaseous chemical raw materials through the reaction chamber at high temperatures and deposit the required compounds on the substrate. The specific steps are as follows:

At high temperatures, silane and tungsten chloride undergo a chemical reaction to produce tungsten silicide deposited on the substrate.

The deposited substrate is removed for cooling and processing.

Production process conditions and control factors

In the process of producing tungsten silicide, it is necessary to strictly control the production process conditions and control factors to ensure the quality and stability of the product. These factors include purity and proportion of the raw material, reaction temperature and time, atmosphere pressure and composition, deposition rate and thickness, etc. By precisely controlling these factors, tungsten silicide products with excellent properties can be obtained.
