Technology products such as smartphones, electric cars, big-screen TVs, and green energy power generation rely on a range of chemical elements that most people have never heard of. Until the end of the 20th century, people were only curious about these high-tech products. But nowadays, I feel that it is uncomfortable to find out which one is missing. This also reflects from the side that these chemical elements are indispensable. Because, in fact, a single mobile phone contains more than one-third of the elements in the periodic table.

Boeing 787 "Dream Window" to Easily Install Your Home? Only Need Tungsten Oxide Electrochromic Film

WO3 applied in electrochromic glass picture

The Boeing 787 "Dream Window" does not have a visor, but it can change the transmittance. What is similar to this is the tungsten oxide electrochromic film. The porthole of the Boeing 787 has no visor, but it can change the transparency! You only need to press the button, the porthole will become a "chameleon" until it is completely darkened! Of course, the captain can also dim directly from the cockpit when the night falls. In addition, because the color change process of this "electronic curtain" is gradual, you don't have to worry about the eyes being uncomfortable. What's more, when an unexpected power outage occurs, the portholes become completely transparent and comply with relevant aviation standards. At this point, some people may ask, "So, can you easily put the Boeing 787 'Magic Window' home?" This just seems impossible. In fact, only need to - tungsten oxide electrochromic film, this black technology can give you Boeing 787 enjoy!

Spherical tungsten powder is an important form of tungsten powder. Porous materials prepared from spherical tungsten powder have more uniform pores. In production, the gas permeability of the product can be controlled according to the process, so it will replace the conventional tungsten powder for making porous tungsten components, such as cathodes of high-power pulsed microwave tubes, electronic tantalum tungsten cathodes, gas distribution plates at high temperatures, and gas filtration materials.
