Description

Ammonium Paratungstate (APT)

High-Purity Intermediate for Tungsten Metal & Carbide Production

Product Overview

Our Ammonium Paratungstate (APT) is a premium-grade, white crystalline salt produced to the highest industry standards. As the primary precursor for the tungsten industry, our APT offers the chemical stability and high purity levels required for the manufacturing of tungsten trioxide ($WO_3$), tungsten blue oxide (TBO), and high-performance tungsten powders.

Whether you are producing cemented carbides for cutting tools or high-density alloys for aerospace, our APT ensures a predictable, high-yield reduction process.


Key Features

  • Superior Purity: Low impurity profiles (Mo, Fe, Ca, and Si) to ensure the integrity of your final alloys.

  • Excellent Flowability: Controlled crystal morphology for easy handling and precise dosing in automated systems.

  • Thermal Consistency: Stable decomposition behavior for uniform transformation into tungsten oxides.

  • Standardized Grade: Available in high-purity decahydrate form.
