It is possible that Charon's boat, in which he transported souls across the red-hot Lethe, was made of molybdenum.

Advantages of molybdenum boats

The advantages are considerable mechanical strength and heat resistance, corrosion and chemical resistance to the most aggressive reagents, a minimum coefficient of thermal expansion, high modulus of elasticity. All this makes it possible to use molybdenum boats for the most demanding production conditions. Compared with tungsten, molybdenum is almost twice as light, so the products made of it have a higher specific strength (at t° up to 1370 ° C).

Disadvantages

The high cost of production of such a boat is due to the fact that molybdenum is a rare metal. Although it is difficult to isolate in pure form, it is refractory and difficult to process, but products made of it, reliable and durable, guaranteed to recoup all costs.

Making

Flats are made of high quality molybdenum plates (MH and MHVP) by riveting and bending or powder pressing method with further machining, which ensures high heat resistance and operational reliability. The boats are manufactured in a variety of sizes and shapes. Tolerances are as agreed with the customer.

Application

Molybdenum boat is widely used in electrical engineering, ceramic production in high-temperature installations with hydrogen or vacuum atmosphere for sintering and annealing metal and non-metal powder products, metal oxide reduction, single crystal growth, glass melting, etc.
