Abstract
The present invention is related to a family of materials that may act as a replacement for lead in applications where the high density of lead is important, but where the toxicity of lead is undesirable. The present invention more particularly provides a high density material comprising tungsten, fiber and binder. Methods and compositions of such materials and applications thereof are disclosed herein.
