Refractory Metal Powders Are Expected to Become Raw Materials for 3D Printing

0 Comment

What is 3D printing? 3D printing is also known as additive manufacturing. Similar to the powder metallurgy processes we use today, metal devices manufactured with this technology are based on metal powders, such as ceramic powders and metal powders. The difference is that the powder is not sintered together, but formed by “printing” sections of […]

Super Performances of the High-specific Tungsten Alloy

0 Comment

A tungsten alloy is a refractory metal consisting of W-Ni-Fe, W-Ni-Cu, and W-Ni-Cu-Fe. They have high melting points and are twice as dense as steel and 50 percent higher than lead. Currently, WNiFe is a popular ingredient for high-specific tungsten alloys, such as W-Ni-Fe Alloy, which can be used to make F1 car weight and so on. […]
