Outstanding high-temperature performance: Maintains shape and strength even at temperatures above 1000°C, with excellent creep resistance.
Excellent thermal and electrical conductivity: Delivers high efficiency when used as heat-dissipating substrates or electrode components.
Low coefficient of thermal expansion: Features exceptional dimensional stability and is not prone to deformation under thermal cycling.
Superior corrosion resistance: Resists erosion by molten glass, molten metals, salts, and various acids and alkalis.
High rigidity and strength: This characteristic is particularly prominent at high temperatures.
Pure molybdenum sheet (Mo1): The most widely used type, available in different grades based on purity.
High-temperature molybdenum sheet (doped molybdenum sheet): For example, molybdenum-lanthanum alloy sheet (Mo-La). Adding a small amount of rare earth oxides such as La₂O₃ can significantly increase the recrystallization temperature, enhance high-temperature sag resistance, and extend service life at elevated temperatures, making it the first choice for high-end high-temperature furnaces.
TZM molybdenum alloy sheet: Alloyed with titanium and zirconium, it has higher high-temperature strength and recrystallization temperature, and is suitable for applications with the most stringent strength requirements.
High-temperature Furnaces and Heat Treatment Industry (Core Application)
Heat Shields/Radiation Shields: Served as key layers of multi-layer heat shields in vacuum or atmosphere high-temperature furnaces, reflecting thermal energy and improving thermal efficiency.
Furnace Beds/Racks/Boats: Bearing the workpieces to be processed (e.g., sintering of ceramics and cemented carbides), without deformation or reaction at high temperatures.
Sintering Plates: Applied in the powder metallurgy industry for supporting products during high-temperature sintering.
Glass and Photovoltaic Industry (Irreplaceable)
Glass Furnace Electrodes: Used as immersed electrodes for electrically boosted or fully electric glass melting furnaces, withstanding corrosion from molten glass at high temperatures.
Components for Photovoltaic Glass Production: Such as carrier substrates applied in the manufacturing of cadmium telluride thin-film solar cells.
Bushing Plates for Glass Fiber Crucibles: A key material in the early stage, now partially replaced by more advanced alternatives.
Semiconductor and Electronics Industry
Components for Semiconductor Diffusion Furnaces: Boats and paddles for holding silicon wafers, featuring high purity and no contamination at elevated temperatures.
Backing Plates for PVD/CVD Sputtering Targets: Utilizing their excellent thermal conductivity and high bonding strength, they serve as supporting substrates for targets such as tungsten and molybdenum.
Anodes and Grids for Electron Tubes: Applied in high-power electro-vacuum devices.
Metal Processing and High-temperature Molds
Isostatic Pressing Canning Molds: Used in the hot isostatic pressing (HIP) forming process.
High-temperature Die-casting Molds: Applied in the casting of non-ferrous metals such as copper, aluminum and zinc, with a long service life.
High-temperature Stamping and Extrusion Molds: For example, molds used in the forming of superalloys.
