What is the solubility of ammonium paratungstate? The more common question is - "Is ammonium paratungstate soluble in water?" or "Is APT soluble in water?"

Coarse crystalized ammonium paratungstate (APT) is a flaky or needle-like white crystal that is slightly soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol. As a raw material for the powder metallurgy industry, coarse crystalized APT has the characteristics of simple production process, high purity, high bulk density, good fluidity, and easy storage and transportation.

Ammonium paratungstate application is always the focus as it is an important intermediate for producing different tungsten products. Ammonium paratungstate (APT) is mainly used for the preparation of tungsten trioxide (WO3), blue tungsten oxide (W20O58/WO2.9) or metal tungsten powder.

Ultrafine ammonium paratungstate is an important raw material for the production of nano tungsten powder. Since the 1990s, nano tungsten powder has been generally concerned by researchers all over the world, and ultrafine APT, as an important raw material for preparation of W powder, is also receiving much attention.
