As a new medical X-ray protection material, W-Ni-Cu alloy (tungsten-based alloy), is lead-free, environmentally-friendly and non-magnetic, and has high density (~18.8g/cm3), strong ability to absorb high-energy rays. Also, it is machinable and weldable. Besides, it has properties of high hardness, high strength and low coefficient of thermal expansion. Therefore, W-Ni-Cu alloy is widely used in the field of medical radiation shielding sensitive to the magnetic environment.

Tungsten alloy radiation-proof foil is the first choice for medical radiation shielding as it has strong ability to absorb radiation such as gamma ray and X ray. Compared with foils made of traditional shielding materials such as lead, the shielding performance of tungsten alloy foils is much better than others. Due to its high density, the volume of tungsten alloy foil is 1/3 smaller than lead foil, but shielding function is equivalent.

Fabrication of cemented carbides is the main use of tungsten carbide (WC). This application uses powders with a wide range of mean particle size. Submicron grained cemented carbides use very tiny tungsten carbide powders, which is very useful as catalyst. Cemented carbides of submicron carbide grains show an improved toughness to hardness ratio.

Ammonium paratungstate (APT) as an important precursor in tungsten industry. It is the raw material for the majority of tungsten products. For example, tungsten trioxide (WO3), tungsten blue oxide, tungstic acid and ammonium metatungstate, etc. These are all intermediates by subsequent calcination and/or reduction of APT. Another significant middle product is monoclinic W18O49, (WO2.72), one of the tungsten suboxides, is an important intermediate product of WO3, influencing significantly the morphology of the tungsten powder end-product. W18O49 crystallises in needles and agglomerates of needle-like crystallites. This is true for the formation by vapour transport, in oxidative, and reductive atmospheres and for the transformation in the solid phase.
