Tungsten

Description

What is Tungsten?

Tungsten, known for its exceptionally high melting and boiling points, is a refractory metal. This transition metal has an average hardness and good ductility. The offered tungsten in pieces has a purity of 99.9% and is valued for its high density, strength and excellent chemical resistance. Even aggressive chemicals such as hydrofluoric acid and aqua regia hardly affect it.

Key Features

• High Purity: Tungsten in pieces with a purity of 99.9%.
• Medium Hardness: Provides a balance between strength and ductility.
• Chemical Resistance: Resistant to corrosion and attack by aggressive chemicals.
• High Density and Strength: Ideal for applications requiring high mechanical strength.
• Good Formability: Easy to machine for various industrial applications.

Applications in Industry and Science

1. Alloy Additive: Essential for the production of high-speed steel, tungsten carbide and tungsten-molybdenum alloys.
2. Scientific Purposes: Used in laboratories for various research and development projects.
3. Chemical Resistance: Ideal for environments requiring high resistance to corrosive agents.
4. Industrial Applications: Due to its high density and strength, used in heavy industrial processes and equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What are the main chemical properties of tungsten? The metal is chemically very resistant and has a high density and strength. It is resistant to attack by even the most aggressive chemicals such as hydrofluoric acid and aqua regia.

2. How should I store tungsten? Store the pieces in a dry, cool environment to protect them from possible oxidation and to maintain their chemical purity.

3. Are there specific safety measures when using tungsten? Yes, always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and eye protection. Maintain a well-ventilated work area and follow all safety guidelines for handling metals and chemicals.
