FERRO MOLYBDENUM
Ferro Molybdenum is an alloy which is formed by combining Iron and Molybdenum. Ferro Molybdenum is a hardening agent and is found in many alloys steels that are heat-treatable. Molybdenum prevents corrosion in Stainless Steels, and when mixed with iron, the Molybdenum also strengthens and hardens into austenite.
Ferro Molybdenum is primarily produced by oxidizing the sulphurous ore and then combining the resultant Molybdenum Concentrate with Iron by an Exothermic Process. It is an additive to the production process of amorphous metals and will impart several desirable properties into the new alloy. One of the primary benefits of adding Ferro Molybdenum to an alloy is its hardening properties that makes steel extremely strong and at the same time weldable, as Molybdenum is one of the top 5 melting-point metals. Additionally, the adding of Ferro Molybdenum to an alloy can increase corrosion resistance.
The largest practical applications of Ferro Molybdenum are its use in ferrous alloys, and depending on the Molybdenum content range, it is suited for machine tools and equipment, military hardware, refinery tubing, load-bearing parts and rotary drills. It is also used in cars, locomotives, trucks and ships. In addition, it is widely used in Stainless and Heat-Resisting Steels that are employed by synthetic fuel and chemical plants, heat exchangers, power generators, oil-refining equipment, pumps, turbine tubing, ship propellers, plastics and inside acid storage containers and Tool Steels.
