Introduction
Molybdenum is a chemical which has strength and is corrosion resistance and has ability to hold shape and to operate in high temperature. It is used as alloying agent in structure and stainless steel. Molybdenum is silvery-white lustrous metal and is lightweight. It has properties such as durability, reliability and has low degree of thermal expansion. It is the by-product of copper mining. It is used in many industries such as oil and gas, heavy machinery, automotive, energy, aerospace and defense and others. Molybdenum has product types mainly steel, chemical, metal, alloy, and nickel among others. The increasing use of molybdenum in many industries such as aerospace and defense, oil and gas and others, will boost the demand for molybdenum market.
