Superior advantages of tungsten alloy materials

As a high-performance material, tungsten alloy has unrivaled advantages in shielding applications: 

Excellent shielding performance: Tungsten alloy has extremely high density and can effectively absorb and block radiation. Its shielding ability is much higher than traditional materials such as lead, and it can achieve the same shielding effect with a smaller volume, providing the possibility for miniaturization and lightweight design of equipment.

High density: The density of tungsten alloy is about 17-19 g/cm ³, which is higher than that of lead (with a density of about 11.34 g/cm ³). Under the same shielding effect, the volume of tungsten alloy shielding components is smaller.

High attenuation coefficient: It has strong attenuation ability for gamma rays and X-rays, effectively reducing the harm of radiation to human beings and the environment.

Excellent Mechanical Properties: Tungsten alloy not only has excellent shielding properties, but also has excellent mechanical strength and wear resistance, and maintains good stability under extreme environments such as high temperature and high pressure.

High Strength: Able to withstand high pressure and impact, not easy to deform, long service life.

High melting point: with a high melting point, in the high temperature environment can still maintain structural stability.

Corrosion resistance: good stability in most chemical environments, without special maintenance.

Environmentally friendly: Compared with lead, tungsten alloy is an environmentally friendly material and does not contain toxic substances, which reduces the potential harm to the environment and human body.
