Molybdenum has the advantages of high strength, high melting point, corrosion resistance and wear resistance, it is widely used in many industries such as Wire cut EDM, steel, petroleum, chemical industry, electronics, pharmaceuticals, agriculture and military. At the same time, molybdenum is one of the necessary micro elements for the normal growth of human beings and plants.
- The applications of Molybdenum wire in the Wire cut EDM industry
Molybdenum wire is an ideal electrode wire can be used for wire cut EDM machine tools. The high-quality raw material of molybdenum could be made in wire shape by adapting advanced technology of cold drawing, molybdenum wire is used as an electrode wire in wire EDM machine tools.
Molybdenum wire is used to process workpieces, which can cut various steel materials and hard alloys and process EDM parts with extremely complex shapes. Its electric discharge machining is stable and can effectively improve the precision of molds. For example: TAGUTI brand molybdenum wire (as shown in the picture), which selects pure molybdenum raw material, has a large elongation and high tensile strength, good electric corrosion performance, low loss, not easy to be broken, and can guarantee the precision and finish of the processing mold when the machine is running .
- The applications of Molybdenum wire in the electronics industry
It is possible for Molybdenum to take the place of graphene in the electronics industry. In USA, the California Nanotechnology Institute (CNSI) has developed a MoS2 (molybdenum, molybdenum disulfide)-based microchip that is only 20% the size of the same silicon-based chip, and has extremely low power consumption. The power consumption in standby mode is cheaper than that of graphene circuits of the same size, and its circuits are also highly flexible, extremely thin, and can be attached to human skin.
- Molybdenum are widely used in the steel industry
As an alloying element of steel, molybdenum has the following advantages: improve the strength and toughness of steel; improve the corrosion resistance of steel in acid-base solution and liquid metal; improve the wear resistance of steel; improve the hardenability, weldability and heat resistance of steel. Most of molybdenum are directly used in steelmaking or cast iron after being briquetted by industrial molybdenum oxide, and a small part is smelted into ferromolybdenum and then used in steelmaking.
- Molybdenum oxide and molybdates are excellent catalysts in the chemical and petroleum industries
Molybdenum dioxide is a good solid lubricant because of its low friction coefficient and high yield strength, and it can be used normally in vacuum and various ultra-low and high temperatures, so it is widely used in gas turbines, gears, molds, aviation Aerospace, nuclear industry and other industries.
Molybdenum compounds are one of the most widely used catalysts and are widely used in chemical, petroleum, plastic, textile and other industries
- The applications of metal molybdenum in medicine and agriculture industries
Molybdenum is one of the essential microelements for the human body, a component of many enzymes, and one of the seven micronutrients required for plant growth and development. Without it, plants cannot survive. Like plants, Animals and fish also need molybdenum.
- The applications of molybdenum in the military
Due to the importance of molybdenum, the governments of all the countries regard it as a strategic metal. Molybdenum was widely used in the manufacture of weapons at the beginning of the 20th century. Nowadays, high-quality, sophisticated and cutting-edge equipment has higher requirements on materials, such as alloys of molybdenum, tungsten, chromium and vanadium are used to manufacture alloy components and parts of warships, rockets and satellites.
