However, there are some niche use cases for its pure form, and this section will contrast tungsten and tungsten carbide to illustrate how they differ. Below, in Table 1, is shown several mechanical properties of each material, and their comparison should give readers a better idea as to when to implement one material over the other. Note that tungsten carbide (WC) is used for this comparison, but more alloys exist. Read More

Tungsten alloy is a kind of metal material with high specific gravity and excellent properties, composed of tungsten and other metallic elements. Tungsten alloy is widely used in various fields due to its high specific gravity, including aerospace, automotive industry, medical devices and so on. This article will discuss the advantages of tungsten alloy products and their applications in different fields. Read More
