Ammonium metatungstate (AMT) and ammonium paratungstate (APT) are both important tungsten compounds, classified as ammonium salts of tungsten. They contain tungsten (W), nitrogen (N), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O), and are commonly used in the preparation of downstream products such as tungsten trioxide and tungsten powder. However, they differ in chemical composition, physicochemical properties, production processes, and applications.

Chemical activity refers to the ease with which a substance undergoes a chemical reaction. Ammonium metatungstate (AMT) exhibits chemical activity primarily through its decomposition and transformation behavior under acidic conditions and thermal treatment. As a precursor to tungsten compounds, AMT plays a vital role in industrial applications and chemical synthesis.

The purity of Ammonium Metatungstate is typically categorized based on the application scenario:

Ammonium Metatungstate (AMT) is a white crystalline powder that is easily soluble in water but insoluble in alcohol. It serves as a key precursor in the preparation of tungsten powder, tungstates, and catalysts, and is widely used in electronics, catalysis, and functional materials.
