When To Consider Using Tungsten Heavy Alloys
Tungsten heavy alloys (WHAs) are often used instead of pure tungsten because they have a significantly higher density and improved mechanical properties. Pure tungsten is relatively brittle and has a low density compared to other metals, which makes it difficult to work with and limits its applications. WHAs are made by alloying tungsten with other […]

Why Tantalum Capacitors Are Essential in Modern Electronics
Tantalum capacitors were first invented in the early 20th century by a Polish engineer named Wawrzyniec Lewicki. He discovered that tantalum oxide was an excellent dielectric material, meaning it could hold an electric charge without conducting electricity. This property made it possible to create tantalum capacitors, which were significantly smaller and more reliable than existing […]
