-
Radioisotope Production:
W-184 can be used to produce radioisotopes like Re-185 and Re-187, which are then used in life science, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals.
-
Thermionic Reactors:
It serves as a coating for emitters in thermionic reactors, devices that convert heat directly into electricity.
-
Thermal Flux Monitoring:
W-184 is a useful dosimeter for thermal neutrons, particularly in high-temperature applications like nuclear reactors. It was used in the Plum Brook reactor for this purpose.
-
Heavy Ion Scattering Studies:
The isotope’s interaction with heavy ions has been studied through elastic and inelastic scattering experiments.
-
General Tungsten Applications:While these are specific uses of W-184, it’s worth noting that the broader element tungsten is used in many other applications, including light bulb filaments, heating elements, and cutting tools, due to its high melting point and hardness. Tungsten carbide, a very hard material, is also crucial in industries like metalworking, mining, and petroleum.
