Tungsten and Wolfram are the names given to element 74 of Mendeleev's Periodic Table of the Chemical Elements. Its chemical symbol is W.

Tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals (3,422± 15°C). At this temperature most of the other engineering metals (Fe, Al, Cu, Ti) have already vaporized. Its boiling point of about 5,700°C corresponds to the surface of the sun.
