Vanadium carbide (VC) and niobium carbide (NbC) are also extremely hard refractory materials. VC can be used as an additive to tungsten carbide (WC) to refine the carbide crystals and to improve the property of the cermet. TiC, ZrC, VC and NbC are commercially used in tool bits for cutting tools.
Uses
Vanadium carbide (VC) is used to alloy iron to produce high-speed, high-temperature cutting
tools for cutting metals and other hard substances.
Uses
Alloys for cutting tools, steel additive.
Flammability and Explosibility
Nonflammable
