                              Description: 
                              California Nanotechnologies, Inc. provides several tungsten carbide-cobalt based cermet powders for thermal spraying in a variety of applications.
Typical Use: 
                              Thermal spraying in a variety of applications. Potential applications include aerospace, oil & gas, pulp and paper, energy, sporting goods and many other industries.
Apparent use of Nanotechnology: nano-scale tungsten carbide (WC)
                              Reason for Inclusion: 
                              
                              "The nano-scale additions provide increases in mechanical properties (hardness, strength) and performance (wet abrasion resistance, etc.). The finer WC grain nano enhancement provides a smoother 'as-sprayed' surface significantly reducing grinding and finishing operations which significantly reduce costs."
