Description and Uses

Tungsten silicide (WSi2) is an inorganic compound, a silicide of tungsten. It is an electrically conductive ceramic material. Tungsten silicide can react violently with substances such as strong acids, fluorine, oxidizers, and interhalogens. It is employed in microelectronics as a contact material, with a resistivity of 60-80 μΩ cm; it forms at 1000℃. It is frequently used as a shunt over polysilicon lines to increase their conductivity and increase signal speed. 

Oxidation-resistant coatings, electrical resistance and refractory applications.
