Is Tungsten Magnetic?

Tungsten, frequently known as wolfram, is a chemical element with atomic number 74 with the symbol W. It’s an uncommon metal only available in nature as a compound with different metals.  Notwithstanding its low defenselessness to magnetism, tungsten heavy alloy’s other crucial properties incorporate reactivity, malleability, and conductivity. Many people have this question is tungsten […]

Tungsten Shot Density 18g/cc

No Bluff! At Agescan, when we say our Tungsten Super Shot (TSS’s) density is 18g/cc, we really mean it!! Although the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard gives us the tungsten density allowance with the range from 17.75 – 18.35g/cc, our strict production process generates better controlled up-range density results, thus, providing more […]

Tungsten Shielding in the Applications of Nuclear Industry and Medicine

Today, there is a huge focus on the widespread prevalence of nuclear medicine applications. There are some of the best and most sophisticated components (engineered) available which allow for imaging of molecules and nuclear medicines for the purpose of absorbing the gamma X-rays and gamma radiations, including tungsten radiation shielding. This eventually helps in a […]

What is Nuclear Medicine Used For

What is Nuclear Medicine Technology? Nuclear medicine is a particular area of radiology that utilizes tiny measures of radioactive materials, or radiopharmaceuticals, to inspect organ capacity and design. Nuclear medicine imaging is a mix of various disciplines. These incorporate science, physical science, math, PC innovation, and medicine. This part of radiology is much of the […]

Demand of Lead-free Tungsten Radiation Shielding

We are specialists in the customization of tungsten heavy-alloys for Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Medicine/Radioisotope, symptomatic imaging and non-destructive testing businesses. Minimum radiation exposure is accomplished by utilizing materials that expand safeguarding. The denser the material, the more significant level of protection it gives. With a thickness roughly 1.7 times higher than lead, Tungsten Heavy Alloy shielding […]
