Description
Molybdenum (Mo) Micron Powder – Purity: 99.95%, Particle Size: 1–10 µm (Metal Basis)
Our Molybdenum (Mo) Micron Powder is a high-purity metallic powder (≥99.95%) with a controlled particle size range of 1–10 µm, optimized for high-performance applications that demand excellent thermal, chemical, and mechanical stability. Produced to metal basis standards, this fine molybdenum powder is ideal for vacuum systems, high-temperature metallurgy, and advanced friction-reducing coatings.
Molybdenum does not exist freely in nature but is extracted from minerals in various oxidation states. While a portion is used in pigment and catalyst manufacturing, high-purity molybdenum powder is essential for critical technical applications.
