What’s molybdenum caride?
Molybdenum carbonide exhibits a high melting temperature and hardness. It is also very resistant to heat and corrosion. Molybdenum (silver-white refractory) metal has a melting point at 2615, and a density 102g/cm3. The Molybdenum expansion coefficient is very low and almost equals that of special glass for electronic tubes. Molybdenum will not oxidize quickly if its temperature is above 600. Molybdenum can be made by reacting with carbon, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide over 800. Molybdenum carbid Mo2C=203.88 contains 5.89% carbon. The dark-gray metallic powder has a dense hexagonal crystal with a density 9.18g/cm3 a melting temperature of 2690. The new material has excellent chemical and corrosion resistance and a high melting points and hardness. With electronic structure and catalytic characteristics similar to those of precious metals, it can be widely used as a catalyst for reactions involving hydrogens, such as alkane isomerization, unsaturated hydrocarbon hydrogenation, hydrodesulfurization, and denitrification. It exhibits high hardness and is resistant to wear. It is an important component of molybdenum-molybdenum carbide hard coating and other cermet coatings and can also be used as a wear-resistant and scratch-resistant coating alone.

For what purpose is molybdenum caride used?
Molybdenum carbide is part of the transition-metal carbide group. It’s a type of intermediated compound that has metal properties. As an innovative functional material, metal carbide can be applied in many mechanical areas with good hardness, stability and resistance to corrosion.
Nickel, molybdenum (and chromium) can help reduce embrittlement in alloy steel heat treatments as an allies. In high-speed stainless steel, the United States is leading the way in replacing tungsten with molybdenum. According to research, molybdenum can twice the amount of tungsten. Steel containing 18% of tungsten can easily be replaced with steel containing 9% molybdenum. This allows for steel to have a lower production cost. In stainless steel, molybdenum plays a vital role in improving corrosion resistance, strength and weldability. As you can see, molybdenum is an important component of the iron- and steel industries.
Molybdenum, molybdenum alloys, have excellent electrical and thermal conductivity and high strength. The conventional processing of plates, strips and foils can be used to make wires, profiles, cables, pipes, wires, or tubes. They are also useful in electric tubes (grid and Anode), electronic light source (supporting material), parts, metal processing tools (die cast and extrusion densities, forging and punching holes), and many other areas.
Molybdenum is very low in vapor pressure at the vacuum furnace’s operating temperature and pressure. Molybdenum pieces are less likely to cause damage to workpieces, or other materials in the furnace. High molybdenum components such as heat insulation packs and heating elements, will last for many years without any evaporation. Molybdenum’s high strength makes it an excellent electrode for glass treatment. Chemically, molybdenum works well with many glass components. It also has no harmful chromogenic effect because it dissolves slowly in the bath. The service life of this heating electrode can exceed 3 to 5 years in a glass melting oven.
