$Refractory Metals$

Tungsten, W
Categories:	Metal; Nonferrous Metal; Refractory Metal; Tungsten Alloy; Pure Element
Material Notes:	Tungsten is a very dense, hard, temperature/corrosion-resistant metal. It is expensive so finds niche rather than large scale structural applications. Some example uses are rocket nozzles, nuclear and medical radiation shielding for x-ray and radiation therapy shields and industrial applications, aircraft and helicopter rotor balance weights, instrument balance weights, weights for sport equipment, tool damping cutter bars, and high voltage contacts.
Key Words:	Wolfram, W
