Molybdenum wire comes in various types, each designed for specific applications based on their properties and characteristics. It can be pure molybdenum wire (Mo1), lanthanum-molybdenum wire (MoLa), molybdenum alloy wire (MoAl) and yttrium-molybdenum wire (MoY) according to the difference in chemical components.
It can be sprayed molybdenum wire, and wire-cut molybdenum wire and high-temperature molybdenum wire according to different uses; it also can be black molybdenum wire and cleaned molybdenum wire according to the surface conditions.
1.Pure molybdenum wire: refers to wires with metallic molybdenum as the main raw material. The color is black gray. After alkali washing, it becomes cleaned molybdenum wire. It has the characteristics of good electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity.
2.Lanthanum-molybdenum wire/High-temperature molybdenum wire: refers to a wire with rare earth lanthanum added to pure molybdenum wire. Compared with pure molybdenum wire, it has a higher recrystallization temperature and better ductility. It is commonly used in high-temperature structural materials, such as printing pins, nuts and screws, halogen lamp holders, high-temperature furnace heating elements, and leads for quartz and high-temperature ceramic materials, etc.
3.Yttrium-molybdenum wire: refers to adding yttrium trioxide to molybdenum oxide, using powder metallurgy method to make billets, and then swaging and drawing to make products. Compared with pure molybdenum wire, it has better tensile strength, bending performance and room temperature toughness.
4.Molybdenum alloy wire: compared with pure molybdenum wire and lanthanum molybdenum wire, it has a higher recrystallization temperature, greater strength and better toughness. It is more suitable for making lamp legs, core wires and bracket wires in the lighting industry.
5.Wire-cut molybdenum wire: used for wire cutting, can cut many conductive materials, such as steel, aluminum, brass, titanium and other alloys.
6.Sprayed molybdenum wire: mainly used in automotive parts that are prone to wear, such as piston rings, gearbox synchronization parts, gear selector forks, etc. The formation of a coating on the wear surface gives components subject to high mechanical loads excellent lubrication properties and wear resistance.
The choice of molybdenum wire type depends on the specific requirements of the application and the environmental conditions. When purchasing molybdenum wire, it's important to consider the desired performance characteristics for the intended use.
