Molybdenum:
High purity molybdenum possesses unique properties that are suitable for use in a number of applications and industries. It may be most well known for its high melting point, 2620 °C, however, its usefulness is driven by its performance in high temperature and corrosive environments:
- Load bearing capabilities at temperatures up to 2000 °C,
- Symbol: Mo
- Category: Transition Metal, Group VI
- Atomic Number: 42
- Density: 10.28 g / cm3
- High melting temperature, 2620 °C
- Low vapor pressure
- Low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE)
- Good thermal and electrical conductivity
- High density
- Good corrosion and creep resistance
