Non-sag tungsten wire is also called doped tungsten wire, which is doped with the element of K (potassium) or other elements. It can be used as a filament in electric lamps. The beneficial effects of doping to improve the creep resistance of tungsten wire were recognized as early as 1910, and doping was practiced henceforth. For example, tungsten oxide powder is doped with potassium-containing chemicals. Non-sag tungsten wire is unique in that it is a composite between two mutually insoluble…
