0 a compound formed from carbon and another chemical element, for example calcium carbide or tungsten carbide
For instance, several manganese carbides have been prepared and their hydrolysis products studied.
The mixed metal carbide and nitride may be formed by cosmic ray bombardment of metal nitrides.
Samples were crushed in a porcelain jaw crusher and powdered in a tungsten carbide shatterbox.
The sample was collected by drilling with a 2.5-mm tungsten carbide bit after discarding the first 1.5 mm.
Organic matter formed from hydrolysis of metal carbides the bombardment was converted partially into beryllium carbide, which we have discussed in the preceding paragraph.
Samples were prepared by tungsten carbide crushing and milling.
Furthermore, the process of metal carbide formation may involve carbon monoxide and its hydrolysis involves the release of hydrogen.
In any case, the crystal structure of the carbide plays a key role in driving the synthesis of the resulting hydrocarbons.
