The hygroscopicity of WCl4 is less stronger than WCl5, but it’s easy to hydrolyze. WCl4 does not melt or sublimate even if heated, but it resolves at melting point or hydrolyze in a vacuum

Tungsten dichloride is gray amorphous amorphous powder, easily formed octahedral groups. It is an important raw material for new applications.
