Release time:

2025-01-08


W152 alloy is a special tungsten-based high-temperature alloy, and its specific composition and properties may vary depending on the application scenario. The following are the general physical and chemical parameter ranges for W152 alloy (specific data should refer to the manufacturer's material handbook):

1.Physical Parameters

  • Density: Approximately 17.9 g/cm3
  • Melting Point: 3150°C (dominated by tungsten's high melting point characteristics)
  • Coefficient of Thermal Expansion: 4.5×10−6K−1
  • Thermal Conductivity: 160 W/m\K
  • Electrical Resistivity: 0.05 μΩ⋅m

2.Mechanical Properties

  • Tensile Strength: 700−900 MPa
  • Yield Strength: 500−650 MPa
  • Elongation: 5−10%

3.Chemical Stability

  • Oxidation Resistance: W152 alloy is prone to oxidation in high-temperature environments and usually requires a protective coating or use in vacuum or inert atmospheres.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Has certain resistance to acids and bases, but is prone to corrosion in strongly oxidative environments.

4.Typical Application Environments

  • Manufacturing of components in high-temperature environments, such as aerospace engine nozzles and nuclear reactor materials.
  • Requires high-density, high-strength protective materials, such as radiation shielding components.
