Characteristics of molybdenum plates
Molybdenum plate is used in many specialty steels. Some other common uses are molybdenum electrodes, vacuum furnace applications, nuclear energy, missile and aircraft parts. Molybdenum plate is very hard and soft, and more tough than tungsten. Molybdenum has a high elastic modulus, while tungsten and tantalum only have a higher melting point.
Molybdenum sheet are made from pressed and sintered molybdenum slabs through a rolling process. Usually the thickness of 2-30 mm is called molybdenum plate, the thickness of 0.2-2 mm is called molybdenum sheet, and the thickness below 0.2 mm is called molybdenum foil. Molybdenum plates of different thicknesses need to be manufactured by different types of rolling mills. Thinner molybdenum sheets and molybdenum foils have better curling properties and can be manufactured by continuous rolling mills with tension. They are provided in rolls and are called molybdenum strips.
Molybdenum Plate has 9 rolling mill units (sets) of different specifications, which can provide users with molybdenum plates, molybdenum sheets, molybdenum foils and molybdenum strips of various thicknesses and formats.
