Source sentences:
text: Because of its conductive properties and relative chemical inertness, tungsten is also used in electrodes, and in the emitter tips in electron-beam instruments that use field emission guns, such as electron microscopes.
text: Tungsten is used in incandescent light bulb filaments, X-ray tubes, electrodes in TIG welding, superalloys, and radiation shielding.
text: Tungsten is often used in electrodes due to its high melting point and its efficiency as an electrical conductor.
