    摘要: By homogenizing the Re content in any cross-section of a ReW wire rod body, it is possible to realize a ReW wire rod which has no variation in material quality, secures mechanical properties, and greatly contributes to improvement of the stability of the thermoelectromotive force. ReW usually adopts a powder metallurgy method in which powders are mixed, molded and sintered. Since sintering of ReW proceeds due to solid-phase diffusion, a phase region in which a Re composition ratio is locally high (i.e., a segregated phase of a σ phase) is generated in accordance with the particle size distribution of the powders, the mixing state, and the molding and sintering conditions. If a sintered body having such large variation in the Re composition is processed into a rod or a wire (wire rod), inhomogeneity due to the variation (fluctuation) of the amount of Re occurs in a cross-section in the processing direction or a cross-section perpendicular to the axial direction. The rhenium tungsten wire rod according to an embodiment is a wire rod made of a tungsten alloy containing rhenium, wherein a rhenium content is less than 30 wt% in any measurement area of a wire rod body where a unit area is 1 um in diameter.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, there are provided a tungsten wire, and a tungsten wire processing method and an electrolytic wire using the tungsten wire, which can improve situations of crack occurrence during a thinning process by controlling crystal orientations in a medium wire having a diameter of 0.3 to 1.2 mm. The tungsten wire includes a tungsten alloy containing rhenium. According to an EBSD analysis on a unit area, crystalline orientations having an orientation difference of 15 degrees or less from , which is parallel to a wire drawing direction, account for an area ratio of 70% or more and 90% or less to a measurement field on an IPF map. The unit area is a 40 µm × 40 um area located within a range of 100 µm concentrically extending from a central axis in a cross-section along a wire radial direction, which is perpendicular to the wire drawing direction.
