The properties of Molybdenum Carbide
The chemical formula of
Molybdenum carburide
MoC is the molecular weight and it is 107.95.
Its melting point is 2692degC. It also has good thermal and mechanical properties, as well as good corrosion resistance. It has a melting point of 2692degC. Water and lye are insoluble. Nitric acid, hydrofluoric and sulfuric acids are slightly soluble.
The catalytic reactions of molybdenum carbide:
1. Hydrogenation Reaction
2. Hydrodesulfurization HDS, and hydrodenitrogenation HDN reactions;
3. Isomerization is a reaction.
4. Hydrocarbon conversion and Synthesis reaction
5. Applications in ammonia syntheses
Preparation of molybdenum carbide
Preparation principle: Mo+C-
MoC
The two elements may be directly combined, or they can be prepared through the reaction of molybdenum oxide and molybdate under a reducing atmospheric at around 800degC.
Applications of Molybdenum Carbide
In terms of global consumption, molybdenum does indeed have a strong relationship with iron. In western developed countries, 80% of the molybdenum demand comes from steel. Stainless and low-alloy metals absorb 30% of the molybdenum. Drill bits and cutting tool accounts for 10%. Cast steel makes up 10%. The remaining 20% is consumed by molybdenum chemicals and molybdenum lubricants, as well as petroleum refining. The United States consumed 75% molybdenum in 1998.
Moreover, molybdenum based alloys find increasing use in electronic, metal processing, and aerospace industries.
1. Molybdenum Alloy
TZM is the most commonly used molybdenum alloy. It has high strength, comprehensive properties and excellent corrosion resistance. The United States uses TZM for turbine disks in engines and molybdenum is used for 15% of total molybdenum. The production of molybdenum in my country, including TZM molybdenum alloy, is not less than 22 grades. Early 1990s, my country’s production of molybdenum alloys and molybdenum materials was around 200 tons.
TZM & TZC Molybdenum Alloys offer superior mechanical properties to pure molybdenum. They are used for high-tech moulds, structural parts, and other high-tech applications. In the early 20th century, we were able to make hot-perforated plugs for various seamless steel tubes. The sintered molybdenum plugged manufactured using powder smelting reduces the raw material consumption (50%) and increases the service lifetime by 1.5 to 2.
The seamless tube of molybdenum alloy (containing 50% Re), has a high performance, and it can be used in temperatures close to the melting point. It can also be used to make the brackets, rings, grids, and other parts for the thermowell as well as the cathode.
It is easier to process molybdenum than tungsten. Therefore, plates, strips, foils, etc. Tubes. rods. wires. profiles. etc. Used in electronic tubes, electric light source parts (support material), metal processing tool (die-casting dies, extrusion dies forging dies perforated plugs liquid metal filter screens), and turbine discs. Used in many components.
2. Alloying components of steel
The use of molybdenum as an alloying component, along with nickel and chromium can help reduce the embrittlement which occurs during heat treatment in alloy steels. United States took the lead by using molybdenum in high-speed alloys instead of tungsten to solve the shortage of resources. Molybdenum, according to calculations has twice the “capacity”, of tungsten. The steel that contains 18% tungsten is replaced with the steel that contains 9% molybdenum. Molybdenum’s role in stainless steel is to enhance corrosion resistance, strength and weldability. You can see that molybdenum has a major role to play in the steel sector.
Other Uses
Molybdenum exhibits a very low vapour pressure when working at the pressure and temperature of the vacuum oven. Molybdenum is the material that causes the least contamination to the materials in the vacuum oven.
Due to its high strength, molybdenum makes the ideal electrode in glass manufacturing. It is also the best material for processing equipment and rapid heating. Because molybdenum is chemically incompatible with most glass components, it will not produce harmful color changes due to the small amount of molybdenum that may be dissolved within the glass melting tanks. As a heating electrode in a glass melt furnace, it can last up to 3 or 5 years.
