Tungsten, also known as wolframis, is a naturally occurring chemical element. It exists on the Earth combination with other elements in the form of chemical compounds. Wolframite and Scheelite are the important ores of tungsten. The significant physical and chemicals of the product includes highest melting point and boiling point of all the elements discovered, high density, greater hardness, and it has the lowest coefficient of thermal expansion among all the pure metals. Tungsten exists in two major crystalline forms namely α and β. Among them, α has one third of electrical resistivity and lower superconducting transition temperature. The tungsten carbide formed by heating powdered tungsten with carbon, is highly chemical resistant. The product finds applications in almost all the major end-use industries, mainly in automotive, electrical, and aerospace & defense. Tungsten is primarily used in manufacturing hard metals based on tungsten carbide which is one of the hardest carbides. On account of its hardness it is widely used in manufacturing wear-resistant abrasives and cutting tools and equipment. This application accounts for more than 50% of the industrial consumption of the tungsten. Additionally, the ability of tungsten carbide to resist abrasion it is widely used in making jewelries.

The primary factors favoring growth of the Global Tungsten Market are the increasing demand for the product in the rapidly growing end-use industries such as automotive, electrical and electronics, and aerospace and defense. The small amount of tungsten in alloying can greatly increase the toughness. This is likely to fuel demand for the product in almost all the industrial applications. The rapid growth of the automotive sector on account of various dynamics of this industry such as e-vehicles, fuel efficiency, automotive light weighting, and emission regulations. This is expected to favor the market growth during the forecast period. The global trade has revived after the global demand slump in 2014. This is likely to boost
growth of the transportation sector, wherein tungsten carbide finds wide range of applications. However, higher cost associated with environmental compliance may hamper growth of the market in coming years.
