More About Thermal Spraying Molybdenum Powder

Thermal spraying coatings typically use materials in the forms of powder, wire, or rod. These materials undergo heating, transforming into micrometer-sized particles. These particles are then propelled towards substrates, forming a coating.

In the automotive industry, Molybdenum Powder is frequently employed for thermal spraying, particularly in crafting engine pistons and synchronizer rings. This choice is driven by molybdenum’s advantageous characteristics, including a low friction coefficient, high resistance to sliding wear, and ductility. Molybdenum coatings deliver favorable frictional properties and scuff resistance, thanks to a promptly formed, adherent oxide surface layer post-spraying. Furthermore, these coatings exhibit hardness and lubricious qualities, ensuring excellent performance in dry conditions.

More About Nano Molybdenum Powder

Molybdenum nanoparticles find a range of applications in both traditional and high-tech industries, including mechanics, electronics, aeronautics, metallurgy, chemistry, and environmental sectors. Nano molybdenum powder, characterized by individual particle granularity, maintains excellent stability in room temperature air, forming approximately spherical particles. It boasts a high specific surface area, high activity during sintering, and impressive strength, hardness, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures.

Nano Molybdenum Powder Applications

1 Metal additive: Add in stainless steel, 1-4% of nano powder, Molybdenum can enhance stainless steel corrosion in corrosive environment capacity.

2 Nano molybdenum powder is also applied to electronic industrial manufacture high power vacuum tubes, magnetrons, heating tubes, X-ray tubes, and medical applications.
