[Know Tungsten] Tungsten Alloy X-Ray and γ-Ray Shielding

Both X-rays and γ-rays have high energy and can penetrate the human body for imaging or kill cancer cells. They are gradually being widely used in medical imaging diagnosis and radiotherapy. Only high-performance materials that can effectively control the range of rays, reduce the damage of rays to other normal parts of the patient, and prevent the surrounding environment from being affected by rays can be widely used.

The tungsten alloy X-ray and gamma-ray shielding parts we produce have a density ranging from 17g/cc to 18.5g/cc. They are often used in CT, linear accelerator, PET, nuclear medicine, gamma cameras and other fields, and can provide the best radiation protection. With Beam Guidance, we not only provide raw materials and finished parts, but also provide a full range of solutions.

[Know Tungsten]Nano Tungsten Oxide in Lithium-ion Batteries

Tungsten oxide (WO3) has shown promise in various energy storage applications due to its high theoretical specific capacity and good electrical conductivity. When used as a cathode material in lithium-ion batteries, nano tungsten oxide could potentially offer several advantages, including:

1.High capacity: Tungsten oxide has a high theoretical specific capacity, which means it can store a large amount of lithium ions per unit mass.

2.Nanostructure advantages: Nanostructured materials typically have a higher surface area, which can facilitate lithium ion diffusion and improve electrode performance.

3.Enhanced cycling stability: Nano tungsten oxide electrodes may exhibit improved cycling stability compared to bulk materials, leading to longer battery lifetimes.

4.Potential cost-effectiveness: Tungsten is abundant and relatively inexpensive, which could contribute to the cost-effectiveness of batteries employing tungsten oxide cathodes.
