The carbide industry has a long history dating back to the late 1800s when the first carbide lamp was invented. The lamp was used in mining and other industrial applications. In the early 1900s, the carbide industry expanded to include the production of tungsten carbide, which is used in cutting tools, abrasives, and other applications. During World War II, the carbide industry played a critical role in the production of synthetic rubber, which was used in the war effort. In recent years, the carbide industry has continued to grow and innovate, with new applications being developed for carbide products in the aerospace, automotive, and medical industries. In the United States, the carbide industry has a more recent history. The industry began to develop in the 1950s and 1960s, with the establishment of companies such as Kennametal and Sandvik. These companies focused on the production of tungsten carbide cutting tools for the metalworking industry. In the 1970s and 1980s, the carbide industry in the United States expanded to include the production of other carbide products, such as wear parts for the mining and construction industries. In recent years, the carbide industry in the United States has continued to grow, with new applications being developed for carbide products in the energy, medical, and aerospace industries.
