Description:
Molybdenum wire is a type of wire made from molybdenum, a refractory metal known for its high melting point and excellent mechanical properties. Here are some descriptions of molybdenum wire:
High melting point: Molybdenum wire has an exceptionally high melting point of approximately 2,620 degrees Celsius (4,748 degrees Fahrenheit). This property allows it to withstand high-temperature environments without melting or deforming, making it suitable for applications involving extreme heat.
Excellent strength and stiffness: Molybdenum wire exhibits high tensile strength and stiffness, making it strong and resistant to deformation. This property enables it to withstand tension and maintain its shape even under mechanical stress. It is commonly used in applications that require strong and durable wires.
Good electrical conductivity: Molybdenum wire has good electrical conductivity, allowing it to effectively conduct electrical current. It is commonly used in electrical and electronic applications, including heating elements, electrical discharge machining (EDM), and electrical contacts.
Corrosion resistance: Molybdenum wire is highly resistant to corrosion and oxidation, even at elevated temperatures. This property makes it suitable for applications in aggressive environments, such as high-temperature furnaces and corrosive chemical processes.
High ductility: Molybdenum wire exhibits good ductility, which means it can be easily drawn into thin wires or formed into various shapes without breaking. This property makes it suitable for applications that require fine wire diameters or intricate shapes.
Wide range of applications: Molybdenum wire finds applications in various industries, including aerospace, electronics, lighting, welding, and metallurgy. It is used in applications such as heating elements in furnaces, wire EDM cutting, support structures in lamps, and as a raw material for manufacturing molybdenum components.
