Ammonium metatungstate (AMT) is an important inorganic compound with a wide range of applications. The following are the main uses of ammonium metatungstate:
Production of metallic tungsten
Ammonium metatungstate is an important raw material for the production of metallic tungsten and its compounds. Through a reduction process (such as hydrogen reduction or carbon thermal reduction), ammonium metatungstate can be converted into metallic tungsten. Metallic tungsten is a metal with a high melting point, high density, high hardness and good conductivity, and is widely used in aerospace, electronics, metallurgy and other fields.
Catalyst
Ammonium metatungstate is used as a catalyst or a component of a catalyst in the fields of petrochemicals and fine chemicals. It can be used in reactions such as petroleum cracking, isomerization, alkylation, oxidative dehydrogenation, etc. to promote the conversion of hydrocarbon compounds.
Ceramic and glass industry
Ammonium metatungstate can be used as an additive in the ceramic and glass industries to improve the properties of materials, such as increasing hardness, improving heat resistance, and enhancing chemical stability.
Fireproof and anti-corrosion materials
Ammonium metatungstate has good fireproof properties and can be used to make fireproof fabrics, fireproof coatings, etc. In addition, it can also be used as a preservative to protect materials such as wood and paper from being eroded by microorganisms.
Nuclear industry
Due to the characteristics of high density and high atomic number, ammonium metatungstate can be used as a radiation shielding material for nuclear reactors to absorb and reduce radioactive radiation.
Other fields
Ammonium metatungstate can also be used to make phosphors, pigments, dyes, etc. In addition, it is also used in electroplating, chemical analysis and other fields.
In general, ammonium metatungstate is a multifunctional inorganic compound that is widely used in metal tungsten production, catalysts, ceramic and glass industries, fire and anti-corrosion materials, nuclear industry and other fields.
