Molybdenum (Mo) Micron Powder (99.9–99.95% Purity, 15–45 µm) is a high-performance metallic powder engineered for demanding industrial and technological applications. Renowned for its exceptionally high melting point, strong mechanical integrity, and outstanding thermal and electrical conductivity, molybdenum maintains stable performance under extreme temperatures and aggressive operating conditions.
The controlled micron-sized particle distribution ensures uniform packing, reliable sintering behavior, and compatibility with advanced manufacturing techniques. Its inherent resistance to corrosion and thermal fatigue makes this grade of molybdenum powder particularly suitable for long-term use in high-stress environments, ranging from aerospace systems to precision electronics and energy infrastructure.
Applications
Steel and Advanced Alloy Development
Molybdenum micron powder is widely incorporated as an alloying element in high-strength steels and superalloys. It enhances hardness, creep resistance, and thermal durability, making it essential in tool steels, stainless steels, and heat-resistant alloy systems.
Aerospace and Automotive Engineering
Thanks to its ability to retain strength at elevated temperatures, molybdenum is used in critical components such as turbine parts, propulsion systems, and structural elements. Its contribution supports lightweight yet durable designs in aircraft, satellites, and high-performance automotive platforms.
Electronics and Thermal Control Systems
Molybdenum is applied in semiconductor bases, heat spreaders, and electronic interconnects due to its favorable thermal conductivity and low coefficient of thermal expansion. These properties support dimensional stability and efficient heat dissipation in microelectronic devices.
