Coagulation of tungsten nanopowders under annealing in hydrogen

Coagulation of tungsten nanoparticles is investigated under annealing in hydrogen flow at 600–1000°C and duration of holding up to 1 h. It is established that the main mechanism of coagulation is the gasphase transport, and mass carriers are the WO 3 · H 2 O molecules. Evaluative calculations of the...

Description
Summary:Coagulation of tungsten nanoparticles is investigated under annealing in hydrogen flow at 600–1000°C and duration of holding up to 1 h. It is established that the main mechanism of coagulation is the gasphase transport, and mass carriers are the WO 3 · H 2 O molecules. Evaluative calculations of the coagulation rate are performed and their satisfactory agreement with experimental results is shown. Recommendations for optimization of conditions of thermal treatment of tungsten nanopowders are given.
