- the tungsten carbide material of this invention achieves a high surface area desirable for catalysis and features substoichiometric levels of carbon in the active crystal matrix which are known to make the active surfaces less prone to coking.
- the composition of the material may be represented by the general formula WC- ⁇ .. where x is from 0 to 0.5
- the x-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the tungsten carbide material is exemplified in Fig. 1 (Cu Ka radiation, 1.5405 A).
- the XRD pattern indicates that the tungsten carbide material has a face centered cubic lattice.
- the broad diffraction peaks are consistent with the presence of extremely small crystallites. According to the Scherrer relationship, the peak widths correspond to crystallite sizes in the range of about 15 A to about 30 A. This is a major improvement over previously reported crystallite sizes of 275 to 385 A.

- Figs. 2 and 3 respectively show the XRD line positions and relative intensities for W 2 (C,0) and WC X _ X superimposed on the diffraction pattern shown in Fig. 1.
- the data for the W 2 (C,0) and WC ⁇ XRD patterns were obtained from the powder diffraction files maintained by the International Centre for Diffraction Data (PDF#22-0959 and PDF#20-1316) . Referring to Fig. 2, it can be seen that the W 2 (C,0) line positions while arising near the major peak positions for the tungsten carbide material do not exactly correspond. .
- the XRD pattern of the tungsten carbide material of this invention is characterized by three peaks: a primary peak P and two secondary peaks SI and S2.
- the primary peak P occurs at a 2-theta (20) angle of 37.6 + 0.3 degrees. Applying the Bragg equation, this reflection angle corresponds to a d-spacing of about 2.39 ⁇ 0.02 A.
- the two secondary peaks SI and S2 occur at 20 angles of 62.0 ⁇ 0.3° and 74.8 ⁇ 0.3°. These angles correspond to d-spacings of 1.496 ⁇ 0.007 A and 1.268 ⁇ 0.005 A, respectively.
- the relative peak height of the first secondary peak SI varies from 25% to 40% of the peak height of the primary peak.
- the relative peak height of the second secondary peak S2 varies from 35% to 55% of the peak height of the primary peak.
- the peak height ratio of the first secondary peak SI to the second secondary peak S2 ranges from 0.65 to 0.80, and preferably from 0.69 to 0.75.
- peak height refers to the maximum intensity of a peak after applying a simple background subtraction.
- the tungsten carbide material is formed by the reaction of a tungsten precursor in flowing hydrocarbon and, optionally, hydrogen gases at a temperature from about 500°C to about 800 °C.
- the tungsten precursor material may be ammonium metatungstate, ammonium paratungstate, tungsten metal powder, tungsten oxides, tungsten halides, absorbed tungsten species, or dissolved tungstates .
- the tungsten precursor is ammonium paratungstate decahydrate .
- Suitable hydrocarbon gases include propane, ethane, natural gas, ethylene, acetylene, or combinations thereof.
- the hydrocarbon gas is propane or ethane.
- the tungsten precursor is loaded into a ceramic boat which is placed into a tube furnace.
- An inert atmosphere is established in the tube furnace using flowing argon gas.
- the furnace is then heated to the reaction temperature and the gas flow is changed to a combination of hydrocarbon and, optionally, hydrogen gases. Once sufficiently reacted, the gas flow is changed back to solely argon gas and the furnace is allowed to cool to room temperature.
- the tungsten carbide material is then passivated by flowing nitrogen gas through the tube furnace. Passivation is achieved by impurity oxygen adsorption on the surface of the material .
- Preferred flow rates in standard liters per minute (slm) for these gases include: 0.05 slm to 9.5 slm for the hydrocarbon gases, 0 to 2.4 slm for the hydrogen gas, and 0 to 14.2 slm for the argon gas.
- the tungsten carbide material formed from these methods has a high surface area.
- the surface area is at least about 6 m 2 /g and preferably ranges from about 10 m 2 /g to about 60 m 2 /g.

- Ammonium paratungstate decahydrate (APT) (NH 4 ) 10 H 2 W 12 O 42 «10H 2 O, was generated from ammonium metatungsate by dissolving 0.5 kg of AMT in 1.5 1 of deionized water. The pH of the solution was adjusted to between 9 and 11 using concentrated ammonium hydroxide. The solution was allowed to set for 48 to 72 hours. Needle-like crystals of APT appeared along the walls of the beaker and at the solution surface. The APT crystals were harvested and allowed to dry. The highly pure APT needles were measured to have a surface area of 0.11 m 2 /g.
- a 5 g amount of the APT needles was placed evenly in a ceramic boat which was then loaded into a Lindberg/Blue M model HTF55-000 hinged tube furnace utilizing a 2.5 inch diameter quartz tube.
- An inert atmosphere was established by flowing argon gas through the tube at 0.5 slm.
- the furnace temperature was raised to 650°C and the gas flow was changed to a propane flow of 0.2 slm and a hydrogen flow of 1 slm. After 2.5 hours, the gas flow was changed back to only argon at 0.5 slm and the furnace turned off. After allowing the material to cool in the furnace under the flowing argon, the material was passivated by passing flowing nitrogen gas through the tube at 1.0 slm for 6 hours. XRD analysis confirmed the presence of the tungsten carbide material .
- Example 3 A 25 g amount of a used tungsten carbide tool was leached in 6N hydrochloric acid at 97°C for 6 hours. The resulting solid was dried and fired in air at 750 °C to an expanded yellow tungsten oxide. The yellow oxide was placed evenly in a ceramic boat which was then loaded into a Lindberg/Blue M model HTF55000 hinged tube furnace utilizing a 2.5 inch diameter quartz tube. An inert atmosphere was established by flowing argon gas through the tube at 0.5 slm. The furnace temperature was raised to 700°C and the gas flow was changed to a propane flow of 0.2 slm and a hydrogen flow of 1 slm.
