- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on 03 July 2015
Use sodium tungstate solution as raw material, preparing ammonium metatungstate solution by solvent extraction or ion exchange. Solvent extraction and ion exchange which is basically the same process and the preparation of ammonium paratungstate. The difference is in the back-extraction (or desorption) operation, stripping agent (or desorbent) and amount of different concentrations in the solution was maintained at pH 3 to 4 cases, back-extracted (or desorption) obtained metatungstate ammonium solution. This method in general APT production process, unnecessary use of stripping agent (or desorbent) can be produced under conditions of AMT solution, so it is a simple method.
Ammonium tungstate solution as a raw material by solvent extraction or ion exchange, then the cationic extractant (or a cation exchange resin) and extracted (or adsorbed) ammonium tungstate solution [NH4] + ion, and then with a suitable stabilizer and can output under the condition of pH AMT solution, which is both simple and economical method. Ammonium metatungstate solution solvent extraction or ion exchange method was the same concentrated crystals or spray drying to take ammonium metatungstate products.

Single Crystal Ammonium Paratungstate Preparation
- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on 03 July 2015
The crystal properties of ammonium paratungstate like crystal morphology, average particle size, particle size distribution, apparent density and flow ability affect the properties of tungsten powder, tungsten wire and tungsten alloy. Single crystal ammonium paratungstate due to its eminent physical properties has become ideal raw materials for preparing tungsten products.
Based on crystallization theory of single crystal ammonium paratungstate, the influences of crystallization device, stirring speed, temperature on crystallization agglomeration of ammonium paratungstate were studies. The results show that the optimal stirring speed is determined as 30, 50, 70r/min, respectively in different developmental stages of crystallization. Under optimal conditions, single crystal rate arrives to optimal value. Suitably reducing pre-crystallization temperature, single ammonium paratungstate crystal rate has more space for enhance. When crystallization temperature is 80 degree Celsius, crystal rate was 96% to achieve the best value. The fluid layer flow control technology and devices for single ammonium paratungstate crystal preparation can effectively reduce collisions between grains, so that the ammonium paratungstate powder single crystal rate can arrive at more than 90%.

Doping Tungsten Influence Vanadium Dioxide’s Phase Temperature
- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on 03 July 2015
Vanadium dioxide film is a new type of heat-sensitive functional materials. It is with increasing temperature at about 68 ℃ will change from semiconductor monoclinic rutile structure to metallic state tetragonal rutile structure. Besides the resistivity and infrared light transmittance and other physical properties are also mutated, based on this characteristic, it is widely used in optical data storage, optical switches and smart windows and other fields. However, due to the phase transition temperature of vanadium dioxide is too high to be widely used. After the studies found that the incorporation a small amount of tungsten ions in vanadium dioxide film can effectively reduce the phase transition point of the film, which is conducive to tungsten vanadium dioxide film be applied in more areas.
Vanadium dioxide doping tungsten cause phase transition temperature lower there are two interpretations, the first one is because when the metal - semiconductor phase transition the vanadium atoms of lattice center off center octahedral voids, then tungsten which has larger atomic radius replace vanadium atoms, however, vanadium octahedral body no extra space for tungsten atoms from the center so as to stabilize the vanadium dioxide metal phase. The second explanation is tungsten has more than two d electrons into V3d vanadium, making the band gap of the semiconductor phase decreases.

Ammonium Paratungstate Converts to Ammonium Metatungstate
- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on 03 July 2015
Before beginning the process to convert APT to AMT, a conventional pH, probe was calibrated using standard solutions at pH 4 and 7. 3000 mL of double distilled water was heated to 90-95° C. Approximately 250 g of APT powder was added to the hot water, and the mixture was stirred using a stir bar. Cation exchange resin was added incrementally in portions of approximately 10 g until the pH of the liquid portion of the APT/water mixture was between 3 and 4. The total volume of resin necessary to reach a pH between 3 and 4 was approximately 675 mL resin/Kg APT. As the APT dissolved in the acidified water, it reacted to form AMT, thereby allowing more APT to dissolve in the solution and drive the conversion of the APT toward completion.
The dissolution and reaction of the APT initially occurred relatively quickly. As the reaction proceeded the reaction mixture changed from an opaque white slurry to a clear, slightly yellow or amber solution. When the solution appeared clear, indicating that substantially all of the APT had been converted, additional APT was added in two 250 g increments until the solution contained 750 g APT (250 g/L). The 750 g of APT reacted in the process (250 g initially+500 g added) was dissolved and converted to AMT in approximately 90 minutes.

Combustion Synthesis of Tungsten Powder From Sodium Tungstate
- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on 03 July 2015
Tungsten powders were prepared by Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis (SHS) method directly from hitherto unreported system: sodium tungstate (Na2WO4) and magnesium (Mg). The adiabatic temperatures of self-propagating combustion reactions with different amount of Mg in Na2WO4 + Mg system were calculated. The influences of different starting conditions (molar ratios of Mg/Na2WO4 and relative densities of samples) on the compositions and microstructure of reaction products were investigated. It shown that, the complete reduction of WO3 required a 60% excess of magnesium over the stoichiometric molar ratio Mg/Na2WO4 of 3. The amount of the impurities is minimal at appropriate relative density. At last, tungsten powders can be obtained after the acid enrichment and distilled water washing.

Sodium Tungstate Modulates ATM Function Upon DNA Damage
- Category: Tungsten Information
- Published on 03 July 2015
Both radiotherapy and most effective chemotherapeutic agents induce different types of DNA damage. Here we show that tungstate modulates cell response to DNA damaging agents. Cells treated with tungstate were more sensitive to etoposide, phleomycin and ionizing radiation (IR), all of which induce DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Tungstate also modulated the activation of the central DSB signalling kinase, ATM, in response to these agents. These effects required the functionality of the Mre11-Nbs1-Rad50 (MRN) complex and were mimicked by the inhibition of PP2A phosphatase. Therefore, tungstate may have adjuvant activity when combined with DNA-damaging agents in the treatment of several malignancies.
