MO1791 Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy (Mo-W Alloy)

Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy Description

Molybdenum has excellent creep resistance, low resistivity, high corrosion resistance, high thermal conductivity, and low thermal expansion. Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy (Mo-W Alloy) has an excellent performance in preventing corrosion of molten zinc and can be used at higher temperatures than molybdenum or molybdenum alloys. Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) can provide different shapes of Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy (Mo-W Alloy) with the custom proportion of Zirconium, Hafnium, and Carbon. Standard forms include bar, sheet, plate, disc, and special shapes are on request.

Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy Specification

Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy Applications

Molybdenum Tungsten Alloys have a higher resistance to zinc etch than pure metal molybdenum and are used in some corrosion-resistant parts of zinc liquid temperature measuring tubes, zinc liquid pump rotors, and zinc smelting furnaces.

Molybdenum Tungsten Alloys can also be used for gas rudders and shields of solid rocket motors due to their high melting point, ablation resistance, and flame erosion resistance to solid particles.

Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy Packaging 

Our Molybdenum Tungsten Alloys are wrapped in foam and packaged in plywood cases to ensure safe storage and transportation.

FAQs

Q1: What is Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy?

Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy is a composite material made by combining molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W). This alloy is designed to enhance the properties of both metals, providing excellent strength, high melting points, and improved resistance to high temperatures and wear.

Q2: What are the advantages of Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy?

Enhanced Strength and Hardness: The alloy exhibits excellent mechanical properties, making it highly suitable for high-stress applications.

High-Temperature Performance: The alloy maintains its strength and stability at extremely high temperatures, making it ideal for aerospace and other high-temperature industries.

Improved Wear Resistance: Due to the high hardness of tungsten, the alloy offers exceptional wear resistance, making it useful in tools and equipment that experience constant friction.

Q3: What industries use Molybdenum Tungsten Alloy?

• Aerospace: For parts that must withstand high heat and stress, such as rocket nozzles and turbine blades.
• Electronics and Semiconductors: Used in manufacturing components that require high-temperature stability and conductivity.
• Nuclear Power: Employed in nuclear reactors and shielding materials to manage high levels of radiation and heat.
