Tungsten Alloy is an alloy produced by powder metallurgy with tungsten powder as main raw material and Fe, Ni, Co as binder. It has excellent uses such as high melting point, high hardness, high strength, high specific gravity, creep resistance, thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity, and is widely used.

Tungsten Alloy is an alloy with tungsten as the main element and added with Ni、Cu、Co、Mo、Cr and other elements. It has a series of excellent characteristics: the density is as high as 16.5-19.0 g/cm3; The specific gravity is 16.5-18.75 g/cm3. The tensile strength is 700-1000 MPa. Strong ability to absorb rays, 30-40% higher than lead; The thermal conductivity is 5 times that of die steel. The coefficient of thermal expansion is small, only 1/3-1/2 of iron or steel; Good weld ability and mach inability.

The climax of research on the brief history of tungsten alloy development is mainly pided into the following four stages:

Ⅰ What is Tungsten Alloy?

There are two definitions of tungsten alloy: (1) tungsten alloy in a broad sense: metal materials containing tungsten are collectively called tungsten alloy, such as tungsten-iron alloy, tungsten-copper alloy, tungsten-nickel alloy and cemented carbide; (2) Tungsten alloy in a narrow sense: an alloy material composed of tungsten as a matrix material and a small amount of metal binders such as nickel, copper, iron, cobalt, molybdenum and chromium, also known as high specific gravity tungsten alloy or high density tungsten alloy or heavy alloy.

Tungsten Trioxide, also known as tungsten oxide (WO 3), has been widely used in many fields such as petrochemical industry, photoelectric information, national defense and military industry because of its special properties such as catalysis, optics and electricity.

Tungsten trioxide (WO 3), also known as yellow tungsten oxide, is an oxide of tungsten and an N-type semiconductor as well. These two characteristics make tungsten trioxide not only have high density, high boiling point and high melting point, but also have catalytic, optical and electrical properties.

Tungsten trioxide, also known as tungsten anhydride (WO₃), is a yellow powder, insoluble in water and alkali, and slightly soluble in acid. Because of its good optical, electrical and gas sensitive properties, it is widely used in life, chemical industry, medical treatment and military affairs.

WO3 has extremely high sensitivity for NO2 detection, and has been an ideal material for gas sensor coatings. WO3 has received considerable attention on the potential applications as gas sensors, photocatalyst and electrochromic devices. And it is also reported that doping another kind of oxides into WO3 leads to the formation of semiconductor heterojunction, thus can effectively improve the gas sensitivity of the coatings.

Tungsten is a metal with the highest melting point of 3440 °C.  Its excellent physical properties, such as good thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion coefficient, make it widely used in high-temperature applications, including aerospace, nuclear, and the national defence industry. One of the significant applications of tungsten is plasma-facing material, which faces a harsh environment such as high temperature, high nuclear irradiation.
