The chemical formula of purple tungsten oxide is WO2.72. It is named for its dark purple powder appearance. Its crystal form is rod-shaped or needle-shaped, and the particle distribution is relatively loose. It is mainly used to prepare ultrafine tungsten powder and ultrafine tungsten carbide powder.

Regenerated tungsten carbide powder refers to the raw material used to re-produce alloys after further processing of materials that have been ball-milled or produced into alloys but are unqualified. The performance of recycled tungsten carbide powder is much worse than that of original tungsten carbide powder, and it can generally only be used to prepare low-grade alloy products.

High-purity ammonium paratungstate is abbreviated as APT. It is the raw material for preparing high-purity tungsten oxide and high-purity tungsten powder. It can be prepared by thermal dissociation and ammonia dissolution. Under high temperature conditions, ammonium paratungstate decomposes to obtain a hydrous tungsten oxide compound that is easily soluble in ammonia water, which is dissolved in ammonia water to obtain an ammonium tungstate solution. After filtering out the insoluble matter, the solution is evaporated and crystallized to obtain high-purity ammonium paratungstate.
