- Overview
  - Tungsten is a metallic element known for its exceptional strength, high melting point, and resistance to heat, wear, and corrosion. It is a dense and hard metal with a silvery-white appearance. Tungsten has the highest melting point of all known elements, making it useful in applications where high temperatures are involved. Additionally, it has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity.
    Tungsten is an essential component in the production of alloys. It is often alloyed with other metals, such as steel, to enhance their strength and hardness. Tungsten alloys are extensively used in aerospace and defense applications, as well as in the construction of heavy machinery and equipment.
