    Description

    EWCe-2 (2% Ceriated) electrodes are tungsten
    electrodes containing about 2% cerium
    oxide, referred to as ceria. The EWCe-2 electrodes
    were first introduced into the US market
    in 1987. Several other grades of this type of
    electrode are commercially practical, including
    electrodes containing 1% ceria, but only
    one grade, EWCe-2, has been incorporated
    in this specification as having commercial significance.
    The advantages of tungsten electrodes
    containing ceria, compared to pure
    tungsten, include increased ease of starting,
    improved arc stability, and reduced rate of
    vaporization or burn-off. Unlike thoria,
    ceria is not a radioactive material.
    These advantages increase with increased
    ceria content. These electrodes operate
    successfully with AC or DC, either polarity.
