  1. A Small Introduction of Tungsten Raw Material What's Tungsten? Tungsten is a strong and tough metal that's gray or white like tin. It can handle high temperatures without melting, and it's super strong. It's number 74 on the periodic table, in the transition metal group. Where It's Found? Tungsten Raw Material is found in nature in minerals called wolframite and scheelite. Wolframite is made up of iron, manganese, and tungsten, while scheelite is calcium and tungsten. There are other tungsten minerals, but they're not as common or valuable. Tungsten is brittle, meaning it breaks easily under stress. To make it stronger, we mix it with other metals. One popular mix is tungsten and carbon, creating tungsten carbide. There are also blends with nickel, chrome, molybdenum, and other metals. Tungsten can handle extreme heat. It doesn't melt until it reaches a scorching 6,192 degrees Fahrenheit (3,422 degrees Celsius). That's

  2. why it's called a superalloy, with excellent strength, resistance to corrosion, and high melting point. Tungsten can be brittle on its own, but we make it stronger by mixing it with other metals. This is important when it's used in situations where it might break under pressure. People sometimes call tungsten "wolfram" because it's derived from the mineral name "wolframite," which is a major source of tungsten. Tungsten's Qualities Tungsten has various chemical and physical properties: Chemical Properties: • Tungsten is in the middle of the periodic table and can have different oxidation states. • It has an atomic number of 74 and a relative atomic mass of 183.84. • Tungsten resists most acids but can be weakened by strong alkalis and reacts with oxygen at high temperatures. Physical Properties: Pure Tungsten Raw Material is a shiny white metal, but it becomes brittle under high stress. • It's the heaviest known engineering metal with a high density. • It has a super high melting point. • It's an excellent conductor of electricity and heat. • Tungsten doesn't corrode easily. How It's Made? Tungsten is extracted from minerals and turned into tungsten oxide. It can't be melted into solid blocks because of its incredibly high

  3. melting point. So, it's often mixed with nickel or other precious metals to form a powdered tungsten, which is then sintered. Different Forms Tungsten products come in various forms, such as black, oxide-coated, cleaned, or ground. These are used in making things like electrodes, light bulbs, industrial machinery, and more. What It's Used For Tungsten Raw Material has many uses. It's used in things like light bulbs, drill bits, machinery, tools, and even in military weapons. It's also vital in making heat sinks to dissipate heat, turbine blades, weights for gyms, and tools that need to resist corrosion. So, tungsten is a remarkable metal with incredible strength and resistance, making it an essential part of various products and industries. In conclusion, tungsten is a remarkable and versatile metal known for its exceptional strength and resistance to high temperatures. It is used in a wide range of applications, from light bulbs to military weapons, due to its unique properties. Tungsten's ability to withstand extreme conditions, its strength, and its resistance to corrosion make it an invaluable material in modern industries.
