Ferro Molybdenum in Iran
Iranian Ferro Molybdenum is a kind of alloy which is making by integration of iron and Molybdenum. Ferro Molybdenum is a strengths agent and is available in many alloy steels that are heat-treatable. Molybdenum in stainless steels prevents of corrosion and when mixed with iron, would be changes to austenite. Ferro-Molybdenum is available in many grades, but predominantly it is produced in just two grades (US and EU) where the content of the Molybdenum grade is between 60% and 75%.
PROPERTIES OF FERRO MOLYBDENUM
Ferro-Molybdenum is kind of alloys to the melting process of amorphous metals and has high potential properties into the new alloy. One of the primary benefits of adding FerroMolybdenum to an alloy is its hardening features that makes steel extremely strong and at the same time weldable, as its melting-point. Additionally, the adding of FerroMolybdenum to an alloy can increase corrosion resistance. Due to FerroMolybdenum properties, it is suitable for a variety of protective films over other metals.
PRODUCTION OF FERRO MOLYBDENUM
A huge amount of the global FerroMolybdenum supply is manufactured in the USA, Russia, China, and Chile. Same as the most kind of ferroalloys , the most basic of the Ferro-Molybdenum production process would be that the Molybdenum is first mined and then transformed into Molybdenum (VI) Oxide MoO3. That oxide is mixed with iron oxide and aluminum and then reduced in an aluminothermy reaction. After melting the electron-beam and purifies the Ferro-Molybdenum, the product will be ready to packaged. Typically the resulting size will be produced as either small briquettes or as a finer powder. FerroMolybdenum is usually supplied in either bags or steel drums for shipping.
USES OF FERRO MOLYBDENUM
The largest practical usage of FerroMolybdenum are in ferroalloys, and depending on the molybdenum purity range, it is useful for machine tools and equipment, refinery tubing, military hardware, load-bearing parts and rotary drills. FerroMolybdenum is also used in cars, locomotives, trucks and ships.
USES OF FERRO MOLYBDENUM
Tool steels, with a high percentage range of FerroMolybdenum, are used in high-speed machining parts, cold work tools, drill bits-screwdrivers, dies, chisels, heavy castings, ball and rolling mills, rolls, cylinder blocks, piston rings and large drill bits. In addition, Ferro-Molybdenum is 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.
FERRO MOLYBDENUM MARKET
The price of FerroMolybdenum saw a major upturn since the start of WWII.
FERRO MOLYBDENUM MARKET
Today the market remains steady, butwith a notable dip-when Chile entered the market and continued to expand production of FerroMolybdenum.
