In order to further improve the strength, toughness and high temperature resistance of pure molybdenum wire, the researchers said that rare earth lanthanum and tungsten elements can be added to molybdenum wire.

Molybdenum wire is a common molybdenum product. If classified by material, it can be divided into pure, high temperature, sprayed and wire-cut molybdenum wire. Different classifications also create different characteristics and uses.

Tungsten lamp filaments, which operate at temperatures in the range of 2400° C, are successfully mounted on molybdenum wire; the wire acting both as a heat sink and a support while lowering the temperature at the support junction.

Molybdenum wire has high melting point, high strength and high modulus of elasticity, low expansion coefficient, low vapor pressure, good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance. It is widely used in lighting appliances, vacuum devices, machining and spraying.

Molybdenum wire is made of precious metals such as molybdenum. Pure molybdenum wire is used for winding wire cores, brackets, lead wires, heating elements, molybdenum foil tapes, and auto parts spraying. Molybdenum wire is used to wind wire core glass seals, as well as molybdenum foil strips etc.

Molybdenum wire is made from molybdenum rods with series of processing such as hot-rolling, forging, drawing and made into a variety of specifications. Molybdenum wire often breaks in the drawing production process , resulting in molybdenum wire into the material rate.
