Uses: 1. Molybdenum is mainly used in the iron and steel industry, most of which is directly used for steelmaking or cast iron after industrial molybdenum oxide briquetting, and a small part is melted into ferromolybdenum and then used for steelmaking.
the molybdenum content in low alloy steel is not more than 1%, but this consumption accounts for about 50% of the total consumption of molybdenum. Molybdenum can improve the corrosion resistance of stainless steel.
Adding molybdenum to cast iron can improve the strength and wear resistance of iron. Nickel base superalloys containing 18% molybdenum have the characteristics of high melting point, low density and small coefficient of thermal expansion, and are used to manufacture various high-temperature resistant components for aviation and aerospace.
