It is widely misunderstood to think that by simply mixing commercially available tungsten powder with a polymer (epoxy or polyurethane), by which people could get a high-density substitute to lead in weight-required applications.
Since the specific shape of the powder and the wetting ability of the polymer, the highest density you are likely to get will be only 4.5 g/cc. The outcome is even lower than steel or copper at 7.8 and 8.9 g/cc respectively.
But, if you use tungsten-alloy beads simply positioned, you will be able to obtain volumetric apparent densities of up to 10 g/cc. These densities consider the overall volume of the cavity and its total weight, which is positioned within.
By using tungsten-alloy beads and balls of various sizes, simply positioned, you will be able to receive volumetric apparent densities of up to 12 g/cc.
By using tungsten heavy-metal small cubes or spheres geometrically positioned, you will be able to obtain volumetric apparent densities of up to 17 g/cc.
