Tungsten applications

Tungsten is widely used, the most common is tungsten&moly tungsten weights carbide 

(WC) carbide. Such carbide used in metalworking , mining , 

oil and construction industry as durable metal . In addition, 

in the tungsten filament bulbs and tubes applications are 

very wide. Tungsten is also used as an electrode . You can 

pull into a very fine tungsten wire , and a very high melting 

point . Its other applications include :

Due to a very high melting point of tungsten wire , so 

commonly used in the aerospace and high-temperature 

environments , such as electronics, heating and welding (EG 

gas tungsten arc welding ) .

Tungsten is very hard, very close , and therefore ideal 

for the production of heavy metal alloy , this alloy is used 

in the armor, heat sinks and high- density applications such 

as ballast, balance weights , boats and aircraft, ballast and 

so on .

Because tungsten is very close , darts often contain 80-

97% of tungsten.

High-speed steel with tungsten sheet , sometimes containing 18 

% tungsten .

Turbine manufacturing tablets, durable and protective 

layer portion containing tungsten superalloy ( Hastelloy , 

Stellite , etc. ) .

Using tungsten bullets instead of lead.

Tungsten compound is used as catalyst, inorganic colors. 

Tungsten disulfide is a high-temperature lubricant , it 

remained stable at 500 ° C.

Since a similar rise and tungsten borosilicate glass , so 

people carried it with glass / metal seal

Tungsten and nickel, iron and cobalt alloys are used to 

make heavy alloys , such as heavy alloys used in kinetic 

energy to replace depleted uranium bombs .

Tungsten in an integrated circuit is connected between 

the road thing . Silica insulator erosion contact hole 

injection tungsten polished to connect transistor. Typical 

contact holes as small as 65 nm.

Tungsten is one of the hardest material , was used in the 

machine tools and abrasives . Tungsten carbide is abrasive 

and turn with the most common material , and often the best 

materials .

Tungsten is in radiology shielding material . 

Transportation fluorodeoxyglucose general use tungsten 

container because fluorodeoxyglucose in high energy fluorine

-18 lead containers so can not be used .
