Material Profile
Key Material Properties
Corrosion Resistance
Molybdenum provides reliable protection against corrosion, even in aggressive environments such as chemical processing, acidic solutions, and alkaline media. Its performance remains stable at elevated temperatures.
Material Purity
High material purity ensures consistent mechanical properties across batches. This improves reliability during manufacturing and reduces the risk of process deviations.
Thermal Conductivity
Due to its high thermal conductivity, molybdenum dissipates heat efficiently. This prevents localized overheating and protects components under thermal load.
Formability
Compared to other refractory metals, molybdenum can be shaped at relatively moderate temperature, simplifying the production of complex components.
Fields of Application
Examples of Use
Molybdenum is the material of choice when thermal stability and process reliability are non-negotiable. It is used in high-temperature assemblies, especially in thermal components for vacuum furnaces. In welding, it functions as electrode material for resistance welding applications. The semiconductor industry relies on it for base plates, sputter targets, and thermal interfaces. Further applications include heating elements, support structures, and carrier substrates in coating processes. Typical use cases are found in glass manufacturing, furnace construction, and high-temperature process engineering, where both shape stability and machinability are essential.
