Tungsten, molybdenum and other metals
Tantalum (TA)
Tantalum is one of the most corrosion resistant metals. The good
corrosion resistance of tantalum makes it ideal for many applications in
the chemical industry, in which other metals cannot withstand the
acidic conditions. Deactivated tantalum is resistant to most acids, such
as nitrohydrochloric acid (aqua regia). The melting point of tantalum
is around 3000° C. The addition of a small amount of tungsten to
tantalum can significantly improve its mechanical strength.

Tungsten (W)
Tungsten combines excellent resistance to corrosion, good electrical
and thermal conductivity, a low coefficient of thermal expansion and
great strength at high temperatures. Unfortunately, tungsten is one of
the most difficult materials to produce. Tungsten is a common material
in anti-tank munitions.

Molybdenum (Mo)
Molybdenum is one of the most important factors in improving the
characteristics of steel. The melting point of pure molybdenum is about
2600° C.
