Application
From the global consumption structure, molybdenum is indeed the ally of iron.In western developed countries, 80% of the demand for molybdenum comes from steel. Stainless steel absorbs 30% molybdenum, low-alloy steel absorbs 30%, drilling head and cutting tool account for 10%, and cast steel accounts for 10%.Another 20 percent is consumed in molybdenum chemicals, molybdenum-based lubricants and petroleum refining.Typical American consumption of molybdenum in steel production was 75% in 1998.
In addition, molybdenum-based alloys have been widely used in electronics, metal processing and aerospace industries.
