Contrast tungsten alloy and depleted uranium

Tungsten alloy penetrators rely tungsten alloy penetrators penetrating armor kinetic energy projectiles to destroy targets. Depleted uranium bombs, also known as the decay of uranium bomb or debilitating uranium bomb. Refers to the use of nuclear power projectile out of the nuclear waste produced by depleted uranium-based alloys as raw material to produce warheads.

Both materials can be used to produce the kinetic energy penetrators. Depleted uranium has a better ballistic performance when piercing would arise from sharpening. Some people think it is self-sharpening ability to penetrate the early stages of depleted uranium sensitivity to adiabatic shear stress due. Tungsten alloy does not have the ability to limit the shear stress in a certain area, resulting in the early warhead to penetrate into the front end was beaten flat mushroom shape, thus reducing the depth of penetration.

But since in actual combat, drills, shooting practice, depleted uranium powder would spread to the natural environment, and depleted uranium is chemically toxic heavy metals, but also radioactive substances, so the use of depleted uranium bombs also caused controversy legitimacy . The tungsten alloy penetrators, not only has good armor-piercing power, and compared with depleted uranium has a non-toxic, non-radioactive pollution.

For environmental protection requirements, tungsten alloy penetrators caused the attention of manufacturers.
