Tungsten Alloy Vs Depleted Uranium
As the filament in an incandescent light bulb, tungsten can illuminate a room, and it also has been spotlighted as an environmental contaminant. In former days, depleted uranium is used in military field, through studies, however, indicate that under certain environmental conditions, depleted uranium can move readily through soil, leach into groundwater, and induce greater biological effects than previously known. These findings do not definitively raise a red flag about depleted uranium, but they have spurred more study on the metal's effects because of the increased use of depleted uranium in military ammunition and in civilian applications ranging from tools to tire studs.
While tungsten alloy is environmentally friendly and non-toxic materials, the density of tungsten alloy melting point: 3,422 ± 15°C and boiling point: 5,700 ± 200°C ,which is higher and much harder than other materials.Tungsten alloy has the highest melting point among metals. Dense alloys such as tungsten carbide are sought after for welding, metal cutting, drilling, aerospace applications, and jewelry. Tungsten alloy is also a good conductor of electricity, which makes it desirable as filaments for light bulbs. From comparision, tungsten alloy is better for the environment than depleted uranium.
