High hardness and high density! Ideal for armor applications. A reliable supply chain independent of China.
In the defense industry, armor is essential for the protection of weapons and personnel. In particular, materials with high hardness and excellent impact resistance are required. The performance of armor is a crucial factor that affects survival rates against external attacks. Indian tungsten carbide (WC) demonstrates excellent performance as an armor material due to its high hardness and high density. Additionally, being part of a China-independent supply chain is important from the perspective of stable supply. 【Usage Scenarios】 * Armor plates * Bulletproof vests * Vehicle armor 【Benefits of Implementation】 * Improved defensive performance due to high impact resistance * Cost reduction through increased longevity * Assurance of a stable material supply system
