Product Details:

A molybdenum tube(pipe) is a hollow cylindrical structure made from molybdenum, a refractory metal known for its high melting point, strength, and corrosion resistance. These tubes are widely used in industries such as aerospace, electronics, and nuclear engineering due to molybdenum’s ability to withstand extreme conditions, such as high temperatures and corrosive environments.

Some key properties of molybdenum tubes include:

  • High melting point: Around 2,623°C (4,753°F)
  • Excellent thermal and electrical conductivity
  • Corrosion resistance, particularly in acidic environments
  • High strength and stiffness
  • Low coefficient of thermal expansion

Common Applications:

  • Heat exchangers: Due to its thermal conductivity, molybdenum tubes are used in heat exchangers for high-temperature applications.
  • Vacuum furnaces: Molybdenum’s ability to withstand high temperatures makes it ideal for components in vacuum furnace systems.
  • Nuclear reactors: Molybdenum’s strength and resistance to radiation damage make it suitable for use in nuclear applications.
  • Electronics and semiconductor manufacturing: Used in components where thermal and electrical properties are critical.
