| Characteristic:Molybdenum powder has high electrical and thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion coefficient and high tension. The combination of these characteristics makes pure molybdenum an ideal material for specific applications. |
| Application:In the field of steel and superalloys, it is used as an alloying element to enhance its wear resistance and corrosion resistance, toughness, hardenability and creep resistance under high temperature conditions. Molybdenum plate, molybdenum sheet, molybdenum rod, molybdenum tube and molybdenum wire processed in the metal processing industry are ideal materials for applications in high temperature and vacuum environments. Molybdenum is the raw material for sputtering targets, crucibles for sapphire processing, and molybdenum boats for nuclear fuel processing. |
