High Specific Gravity Tungsten Alloy
High specific gravity tungsten alloy, also known as high-density tungsten alloy, is a type of alloy material with metal tungsten as the main component. It is characterized by very high density and good mechanical properties. These alloys are typically composed of tungsten combined with nickel, iron, copper or other metallic elements to meet specific performance requirements.
High specific gravity tungsten alloy is based on tungsten (which contains 85% to 99% tungsten) with a small amount of nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), molybdenum (Mo), and chromium added An alloy material composed of metal binders such as (Cr), also known as high-density tungsten alloy or heavy alloy [1]. The density of high specific gravity tungsten alloy can reach 16.5~19.0g/cm^3. The more commonly used ones are: W-Ni-Cu and W-Ni-Fe. This material has remarkable characteristics in physical properties such as density, strength, hardness, ductility, electrical conductivity/thermal properties, etc., so it is widely used in the defense industry, aerospace industry, medical industry, electrical industry and other industries.
Manufacturing process:
Producing high-gravity tungsten alloys typically involves mixing metallic tungsten powder with other metal powders and then shaping them into the desired shape through a process of pressing and sintering. This process requires precise temperature control and processing techniques to ensure the performance and quality of the alloy.
