MOLYBDENUM:

High purity molybdenum possesses unique properties that are suitable for use in a number of applications and industries.  For example, its high melting point, °C, drives its performance in high temperature environments. Elmet starts with the highest quality Mo powder to ensure our final product always meets our customer&#;s application needs. In addition, we will modify the manufacturing processes to meet even the most exacting application requirements that our customers have.

Fully Integrated Tungsten and Molybdenum Manufacturing:

When tungsten and molybdenum material characteristics and properties must be critically controlled for superior end product performance, companies rely on Elmet Technologies’ unmatched expertise in the field of powder metallurgy. Our advanced powder processing produces pure tungsten and molybdenum metal powders as well as specific metal alloys. By selectively influencing aspects of the metallurgical process, we can change characteristics like porosity, strength, and temperature resistance to meet our customers’ specific needs. At Elmet, our process is fully integrated and starts with the raw material, metal oxide, which is then purified to tungsten and molybdenum metal powder through a chemical reduction process. The powder is formed into semi-finished products through a series of advanced mixing, pressing, deformation and heating technologies.  Finished products are then carefully manufactured to customer specifications utilizing our state-of-the-art machining and fabrication techniques.  By controlling each step in the production process from metal powder to finished product we ensure that our products consistently deliver the performance and quality required by our customers.

Molybdenum is used for its extremely high melting point and relative flexibility. Molybdenum has a melting point of 2,623 °C.  Molybdenum has a high elastic modulus, and only tungsten and tantalum have higher melting points. When combined with steel and other metals, the bond gives the material a high resistance to extreme temperatures and chemical corrosion. This property is very useful when working with energy applications, reactive chemicals, high-intensity motors, filaments, industrial molds and more. Typical applications for Molybdenum are crucibles, evaporation boats, propulsion components,  x-ray tube, lighting industry, glass melting electrodes, high temperature furnaces, sputtering targets, heat sinks, heating elements, electrodes, stirrers, orifice plates, support members, mandrels, shields, sintering trays, filaments, furnace windings, thermocouple sheathes, nose cones, nozzles, jet tabs, contacts, brazing fixtures, boring bars, tools, heat radiation shields, cathodes, and aircraft and missile parts and nuclear energy applications where high temperature resistance is crucial.
