Product Details
Tungsten Powder Color
The color of tungsten powder is usually gray or black, showing metallic luster. The color and appearance of tungsten powder may vary slightly due to different processing techniques and particle sizes.
Specifications and Parameters
Chemical composition: The content of tungsten is usually 99.9% and above, with a very small amount of impurity elements, such as iron and aluminum.
Particle size: Common particle sizes range from nanometer (<100nm) to micron (1-10 micron), specific specifications can be customized according to customer needs.
Specific gravity: about 19.3 g/cm³, exhibiting high density.
Melting point: about 3422°C, suitable for high temperature applications.
Surface Properties: Usually exhibits a high specific surface area, contributing to improved reactivity and alloying properties.
Tungsten Powder Uses and Applications
Cemented carbide: Tungsten powder is mainly used for the production of tungsten carbide and other cemented carbides, which are widely used in the manufacture of cutting tools, drills, milling cutters and so on.
Electronic industry: It is used in the manufacture of electronic components such as filaments, electronic tubes, thermocouples, etc., due to its good electrical conductivity and high melting point.
Radiation protection materials: due to its high density, tungsten powder is used in the manufacture of radiation protection equipment.
3D printing: In additive manufacturing, tungsten powder can be used to print high-performance parts, especially in the aerospace and medical industries.
Alloying: Tungsten powder can be alloyed with other metals (e.g. copper, nickel, etc.) to make high-temperature alloys and wear-resistant materials.
Tungsten Powder Packaging
Tungsten powder is usually packaged in different ways depending on the particle size and application of the product:
Small package: usually in plastic bag or aluminum foil bag, the net weight is usually 100g to 1kg.
Large package: such as 25kg or larger size carton or iron drum for bulk transportation and storage.
Storage: should be placed in a dry and cool place, avoid contact with moisture and chemicals such as strong acids and alkalis.
