Barium tungstate is white powder, slightly dissolve in water, dissolve in oxalate water solution, decompose in acid and is stable in the air.

Tungstate industrial type includes the following traditional products: ammonium paratungstate, tungstate.

Lithium tungstate is colorless triangle crystal and has BeSiO₃ stone lattice.

Cadmium tungstate is a white or yellow fluorescent crystals, with wolframite structure, dissolving in ammonium hydroxide and alkali cyanide solution, almost insoluble in water or dilute acid.

Tungstate have a protective effect to many metals and their alloys, and tungstate inhibition performance plays a role in medium.

Medical sodium tungstate is transparent crystalline or white crystalline powder, it has antidiabetic function, has little toxic, high availability in biology.

Evaporation crystallization is the main method for producing ammonium paratungstate, enamel reactor and continuous crystallizer are usually used as reacting equipment.

Sodium polytungstate is also called sodium metatungstate, it has the advantages of high density, ordorless, easy to synthesis and can be recycled, it is largely applied in density separation in geology and soil science.

Ammonium paratungstate thermal decomposition method producing ammonium metatungstate is the typical and main process to produce AMT by solid phase transition method.

Sodium tungstate and sodium molybdate are two different substances with their difference reflecting in physical, chemical property and application.
