What's special about our metals?
Tungsten, tantalum and molybdenum are the most heat-resistant metals. wheras iron and steels start to feel the heat even at 1 600 degrees Celsius, these temperatures leave our materials cold. With their high melting point , they are suitable for use as heaters in high-temperature furnaces or as incandescent filaments in lamps. In electrical switch contacts, they are valuable because of their excellent electrical and thermal conductivity. In electrically conductive film in flat screens and solar cells, our alloys are remarkable for their low coefficient thermal of expansion. In this way, they bring astonishingly sharp image quality to our living rooms and provide us with clean energy.
