About Tungsten (W)

Pure tungsten is a hard, lustrous, and silvery-white metal. Tungsten has the highest melting point, lowest vapor pressure, and the highest tensile strength of all the elements.

Its good properties make tungsten an important raw material used in high-temperature applications. For example, good electrical conductivity makes high-purity tungsten has a wild application in TFT-LCD screens.

Most tungsten is consumed for the production of tungsten carbide (WC), one of the hardest carbides. Tungsten alloys are also widely used in filaments in incandescent light bulbs, electric contacts, arc-welding electrodes, radiation shielding, and the aerospace industry.

Tungsten (W) Features

Tungsten, known as the "heavy metal," is renowned for its extraordinary attributes, making it a powerhouse material in numerous industries:

High Melting Point: Tungsten boasts the highest melting point of any element, rendering it invaluable for applications involving extreme temperatures.

Unyielding Strength: Recognized for its exceptional strength and density, Tungsten is the go-to choice for components that require stability under immense stress.

Corrosion Resistance: Tungsten's natural resistance to corrosion ensures longevity in harsh environments, making it indispensable for chemical, aerospace, and automotive applications.

Electrical Conductivity: With remarkable electrical conductivity, Tungsten is favored for electrical and electronic components that require both strength and conductivity.

Radiation Shielding: Tungsten's density makes it a prime candidate for radiation shielding, vital in healthcare, nuclear, and scientific research.
