How do you alloy tungsten with steel when it has such a high melting point?
The melting point of tungsten exceeds the boiling point of steel.
It has such a high melting point that it's not really feasible to melt, usually things made of tungsten are pressed from tungsten power.
And while materials like tungsten carbide are definitely ceramics, alloys like high-speed steel contain quite a bit of tungsten.
So how do you alloy a metal with a melting point that exceeds the other metal's boiling point?
