Interesting things about molybdenum

Technical Characteristics

Molybdenum is a gray-silver refractory metal, one of the main advantages of which is its relatively small specific weight - about 2 times less than that of tungsten. In addition, the metal molybdenum is characterized by:

- high melting point;

- excellent electrical and thermal conductivity;

- low coefficient of linear expansion;

- high resistance to the negative effects of acids and alkalis.

Applications

Metallurgical industry, nuclear energy, military-industrial complex, production of electron-beam devices, glass. Due to its excellent heat resistance and good workability, molybdenum is widely used for the production of heat-resistant boats, crucibles, targets, heat shields, industrial furnace heating elements, etc.
