Refractory Metals

Refractory metals have one characteristic in common: an exceptionally high melting point. Tungsten, for example, melts at 3410oC (6170oF), which is more than double that of iron and ten times that of lead. As a group, they are found in one section of the periodic table of elements. Although there are twelve refractory metals, only five are widely used: Tungsten, Molybdenum, Niobium, Tantalum and Rhenium. All but Rhenium have a body-centered cubic structure. Despite the fact that refractory metals have many similar qualities-such as high density, resistance to wear and corrosion-each metal is different in its own way, providing each with its own individual combination of qualities. Many of these individual qualities are rather unique, such as an ability to combine with gases and then release them under heat. Alloys containing varying amounts of refractory metals are vital to virtually every major industry, including automotive, mining, aerospace, chemical and petroleum processing, electrical and electronics, medical electronics and prosthetics, metal processing, nuclear technology and ordnance.
