Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide consumption resistance and high arc generating power to a tungsten electrode material by adding a small amount of cerium oxide to the material. CONSTITUTION:High purity metallic tungsten powder is unformly mixed with 0.2-3.0wt% cerium oxide, and the mixture is press-molded into an ingot, presintered, and sintered to obtain a tungsten electrode material. The electrode material is subjected to rotary swaging and grinding to form a tungsten-cerium oxide electrode rod or the like. This material can be used as an electrode rod for TIG welding requiring high arc generating power and resistance to consumption and deformation as well as an electrode for common use.
