Chemical formula and elemental valence: Tungsten Boride is a compound consisting of tungsten (W) and boron (B), where tungsten has +2 valence and boron has -2 valence.
\nType of crystal structure: Tungsten Boride has a hexagonal crystal structure.
\nAppearance: Generally grey or dark grey.
\nDensity value: 15 – 16 g\/cm\u00b3.
\nHardness characteristics: around 7 – 8.<\/p>\n
Transistors and integrated circuits: Tungsten Boride is semiconductor properties make it potentially valuable in the field of transistors and integrated circuits.<\/p>\n
Resistive materials: Since the resistance of WB changes significantly with temperature, it can be used as a temperature-sensitive resistor (thermistor) material.<\/p>\n
Optical modulation materials: The light absorption and reflection properties of WB make it possible to be used as an optical modulation material. In the field of optical communication, WB can be used to manufacture optical switches, optical attenuators and other optoelectronic devices, which can be used to regulate the on-off of the optical path or the magnitude of the light intensity by changing the optical or electrical signals.<\/p>\n
Coatings for cutting tools and moulds:Tungsten Boride is high hardness and chemical stability allow it to be used in the manufacture of coatings for cutting tools and moulds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
