Tungsten alloys generally have two-phase composites consisting of W-Ni- Fe or W-Ni-Cu or even W-Ni-Cu-Fe, some tungsten alloy is added Co、Mo、Cr, etc . Tungsten content in conventional heavy alloys varies from 85 to 97 weight percent and is the reason for their high density, the density between 16.5 and 18.5 g/cc. It could be made as various shapes, such as rod, ball, cylinder, brick, ring, etc.
As tungsten alloy cubes are high density with small capacity, high temperature resistance, high impact resistance and crack resistance, wonderful shock resistance, good corrosion resistance, High absorption capacity against X-rays and gamma rays, Good modulus of elasticity, High hardness, etc.
Tungsten alloy cubes is in small volume with high density, which means it could be used in military field, such as penetrating projectiles, counterweights for military defense, projectiles in the missile weapons, armor piercing ammunition, prefabricated fragments.

Tungsten Alloy for Radiosiotope Handling in Nuclear Research

- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on Thursday, 09 May 2013 14:23
Nuclear research establishments use nuclear reactors or cyclotrons to study or create radioactive materials. Tungsten alloy is used in research activities as collimators (devices which guide or focus beams of radiation) or containers for radioactive isotopes. Tungsten alloy is ideal for shielding against both X- and Gamma radiation. The very high density of tungsten shielding (more than 60% denser than lead) allows a reduction in the physical size of shielding components, without compromising the effectiveness of the shielding characteristics.
Tungsten spheres are used with remote handling tongs to process radioactive materials inside hot cells. The spherical joints allow the tongs to be manipulated through the lead walls of the hot cell. When high levels of radioactivity are involved, tungsten alloy is the ideal material to protect operators from radiation.

Tungsten Alloy for Efficient Radiation Protection
- Details
- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on Thursday, 09 May 2013 13:18
Whether in the world of medical or industrial X-ray technology, radiotherapy or nuclear power stations: Wherever high-energy radiation is used, it is vital to protect people against it.
The denser the material, the better able it is to protect from radiation. That is why heavy elements absorb X-rays and gamma radiation particularly well. Lead is still the most frequently used shielding material.But lead is a toxic material that is harmful to the environment and humans. The onerous recycling process makes lead expensive despite the low initial procurement costs.
The density of tungsten is 60 percent higher than that of lead. That is why even thinner layers of tungsten alloy are able to provide reliable shielding against radiation. The tungsten alloy is particularly suitable as a shielding material. It consists of tungsten and a small proportion of nickel-iron. Like tungsten, the material has excellent shielding properties. However, it is also considerably more ductile than tungsten and can therefore be machined better.

- Published on Thursday, 09 May 2013 10:42
The high density of tungsten heavy alloys makes it possible to significantly reduce the physical size of components. This in turn, gives the benefit of greater control of weight distribution and increases the sensitivity of controlling mechanisms. Where a large mass must be housed within a restricted area, Tungsten heavy alloys are the ideal material.
Tungsten heavy alloys counter balances are often used to optimize the performance of flight control surfaces, such as rudders, elevators and ailerons, with many advantages over conventional balance materials e.g. steel or lead.
Helicopter rotor blades demand perfect balance. Tungsten heavy Alloys can be utilized to compensate for any imbalances built into individual blades during the manufacturing process, such as helicopter balance.

Tungsten Supply and Deman
- Details
- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on Thursday, 09 May 2013 10:29
As a strategic metal, tungsten is widely used in metallurgical machinery, petroleum chemistry, aerial and space industries and national defence engineering. So, today we are going to talk about tungsten supply and demand.
China has rich tungsten resources. During the past 10 years, China supplys more tungsten than the demand. By the end of 1998, China’s tungsten production capacity exceeded 35,000 tons. In recent years, the global demand for tungsten has been about 31,000 tons, whild China’s tungsten production in 1998 amounted to about 22,000 tons, making up 71% of the global tungsten demand.
At present, China’s domestic tungsten demand is about 8,000 tons and most of its tungsten is exported. While, excess tungsten exports have caused a decline in the global tungsten price, which is unfavorable to the development of China’s tungsten industry.
Varied international and domestic tungsten markets make it difficult to accurately predict the future demand for tungsten.
It is necessary to maintain and give full play to tungsten superiority to guarantee a sustainable development of China’s tungsten industry.
Above is about tungsten supply and demand.
