Tungsten Alloying Additive

Tungsten alloying additives are materials that are used to enhance the properties of tungsten alloys. These additives are typically added to tungsten during the alloying process to improve its strength, hardness, and other desirable characteristics.

Some common tungsten alloying additives include:

1. Nickel (Ni): Nickel is often added to tungsten alloys to improve their ductility and toughness. It also helps to enhance the corrosion resistance of the alloy.

2. Iron (Fe): Iron is another common additive used in tungsten alloys. It helps to improve the machinability and weldability of the alloy.

3. Copper (Cu): Copper is added to tungsten alloys to improve their electrical and thermal conductivity. It also enhances the alloy's resistance to corrosion.

4. Cobalt (Co): Cobalt is used as an additive in tungsten alloys to increase their strength and hardness. It also improves the alloy's resistance to wear and deformation.

These tungsten alloying additives are typically available in the form of powders or granules and are used in various industries, including aerospace, defense, electronics, and automotive. They are classified under the supply class "Additive Metal Materials" in the supply group "Ores, Minerals, And Their Primary Products."
