Executive Summary
It was during the second world war that led to enormous traction for tungsten carbide globally.Tungsten carbide, made up of tungsten and carbon, was initially used for the production of weapons.

Tungsten is known for its exceptional properties such as high wear and tear resistance which makes it a popular material of choice across major end-user applications. More than 60% of the tungsten manufactured globally, is utilized in the production of tungsten carbides.

The tungsten carbide market is gradually witnessing a dynamic growth rate, with its usage ranging across various applications.Tungsten carbide is a hard, composite material that is increasingly gaining popularity for numerous applications such as cutting tools, wear resistance tools, and wear parts, among others.

Its unique combination of strength, hardness, and toughness has created an excessively high demand in various end-use industries.It is twice as rigid as steel and has a density double than that of steel (and nearly midway between lead and gold).

Tungsten carbide is the most robust man-made metal matrix composite. This material possesses a unique combination of properties that have allowed manufacturers across a broad spectrum of industries to increase throughput rates, reduce downtime, and extend the life of production tools and component wear parts.

In the 1920s and 1930s, a company named Osram, based in Germany was one of the primary users of tungsten carbide.This company utilized tungsten carbide material instead of drawing dies made up of diamond.

The reliability of tungsten carbide and its ability to cut other hard metals was an essential factor for its widespread use and popularity.This carbide soon began to be used around the world for the cutting steel and iron.

While tungsten carbide was recognized as a strong material, the developmental evolution of the material resulted in it becoming even stronger when it was mixed with numerous other metals such as cobalt, tantalum, and titanium. The mixing of these materials with tungsten carbide results into a unified material that was even more resolute and reliable, ensuring it to be a top choice for milling and mining practices at present.

The global tungsten carbide consumption in 2017 was 60.34 million tons and it is expected to reach XX million tons by 2028. The market in term of value was $XX billion in 2017 and it is expected to reach $3.69 billion by 2028.

Currently, tungsten carbide is used in various applications such as cutting tools, wear parts, mining and drilling tools, medical tools, wood and plastic working tools, jewelry and many more.Out of all these, cutting tools is the leading application followed by mining & drilling tools.

Tungsten carbide is largely used in these two applications owing to its toughness and high abrasion resistance.

Compared with the other materials such as poly crystallized diamond and High Speed Steel (HSS), tungsten carbide has a high preference ration among the industry end users.The material is cost effective which makes tungsten carbide a popular choice among the small-scale manufacturers as well.

Tungsten carbide is highly effective at high temperatures which is a drawback of high-speed steel, thus making, tungsten carbide more favorable for high temperature applications.
