Poster summary

In the present study, investigation of the tungsten carbide powder as a result of arc discharge plasma synthesis from tungsten ore concentrate is performed. Arc discharge was maintained in the open-air environment. This method is vacuum-free because of the self-shielding effect caused by generation of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide gases. The initial materials are ore concentrate and carbon. XRD, SEM, TEM and electrocatalysis methods were used.
