Descriptions of Tungsten Powder

Tungsten powder is a fine, gray metallic powder made from high-purity tungsten. It is known for its extremely high melting point (3422°C), high density, excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, and exceptional hardness. Typically produced through hydrogen reduction of tungsten oxides, this powder is essential for applications requiring heat resistance, strength, and durability. It serves as a key raw material in powder metallurgy for manufacturing tungsten-based components, including filaments, electrodes, electrical contacts, and heavy metal alloys. Tungsten powder is available in various particle sizes and purities to suit specific industrial and technical requirements.
