Properties and Applications of Tungsten Alloy

Properties and Applications of Tungsten Alloy

Tungsten alloy has high density, high hardness, good ductility, high temperature corrosion resistance, good electrical properties and thermal conductivity, as well as low coefficient of linear expansion and good corrosion and oxidation resistance. Below, Apex-New Material tungsten alloy manufacturer gives us an introduction to tungsten alloy properties and applications .;

I. Preparation method of tungsten alloy

Tungsten is a kind of metal which is difficult to be purified, so the preparation of tungsten alloy needs to mix tungsten with other metals first to form tungsten alloy. There are mainly the following methods to prepare tungsten alloy:

1. Powder metallurgy method: tungsten powder is mixed with other metal powders, made into billet through high temperature and high pressure, and then pressed, sintered and heat-treated to form tungsten alloy products.

2. Casting method: tungsten and other metals are melted in a certain proportion and cooled with the help of casting equipment to form tungsten alloys of the required shape.

3. Jet deposition method: tungsten and other metals form a thin film on the substrate, gradually thickening the formation of tungsten alloy.

Second, the mechanical properties of tungsten alloy

Tungsten alloy has high hardness and high strength mechanical properties, its hardness is as high as HRC80 above, but also has good toughness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance.

Third, the physical properties of tungsten alloy

The density of tungsten alloy is as high as 18.5g/cm3 or more, which is more than twice that of other metals. Its thermal and electrical conductivity is also very good, in the high temperature environment can still maintain good mechanical properties.

Fourth, the heat resistance of tungsten alloy

Tungsten has a high melting point and boiling point, while tungsten alloy also has a strong high temperature resistance. Tungsten alloy is not easy to melt and surface oxidation in high temperature environment, so it has wide application in manufacturing high temperature parts and heat-resistant tools.

V. Application of tungsten alloy

1. Manufacture of high-temperature parts and heat-resistant tools.

2. Manufacture of mechanical parts, such as cutting tools, molds, etc. 3.

3 for protection and anti-radiation purposes, such as protective wall panels, radiation windows, etc. 4 for the manufacture of electronic components, radiation protection.

4. used in the manufacture of electronic components, vacuum equipment, etc. 5. used in the manufacture of aviation, aerospace, etc.

5. Used in the manufacture of aviation, aerospace and other fields of materials.

As a material with high density, hardness, corrosion resistance and thermal stability, tungsten alloy has outstanding mechanical properties, physical properties and heat resistance. It has a wide range of applications in the manufacture of high-temperature parts, mechanical parts, electronic components, protection and radiation-resistant uses.
