Electroplating onto tungsten:

Electroplating onto tungsten:
==> Is it posssible to electroplate other metals onto tungsten ?
==> Is it possible to plate tungsten itself ?
This would give some nice possibilities and uses for this hard high-temp-material ...

Such as high-temp-vessels, tungsten-tube (for a tube-furnace), ...

Has anyone any source of phase-diagramswith other metals ?

Phase diagrams are an excellent resource when you have speculations about some solid material.
Sometimes I post the diagram specific for the problem, but I think is better if everyone is able to search by themselves, so:

I hope this will be your major tool when thinking about alloys, salts and such a things.

Yes, I know.
