What is Ta-10W Alloys Wire?

Tantalum 10% tungsten wire is a high-melting-point, high-strength, corrosion-resistant tantalum-tungsten alloy wire, suitable for high-temperature, high-stress and highly corrosive environments. Typical applications of Ta-10W Alloys Wire include aerospace high-temperature components, chemical corrosion-resistant equipment, medical implants and military armor materials.

Material properties of 90 % tantalum 10 % tungsten wire
1. High strength: The solid solution strengthening of tungsten significantly enhances the strength of tantalum, making it particularly suitable for high-stress environments.
2.Good ductility (in annealed state): Can be processed into fine wires or complex shapes.
3.Cold work hardening: By cold drawing, the strength can be further enhanced, but the plasticity decreases.

Tantalum-10 tungsten wire maintains excellent performance even at high temperatures
1.High-temperature strength: It still maintains an tensile strength of 200 - 400 MPa at 1000°C.
2.Creep resistance: Superior to pure tantalum, suitable for long-term high-temperature loading (such as rocket nozzles).
3.Oxidation behavior: Begins to undergo significant oxidation above 600°C and requires coating protection (such as silicide coating).
