Molybdenum characteristics

Silver-white metal, hard and tough. Density of 10.2 g / cm 3. The melting point of 2610 ℃. The boiling point of 5 560 ℃. Valence +2, +4 and +6, the stable price of +6. Molybdenum is a transition element, easily change their oxidation state,
  Passing electrons play a role in the redox reaction in the body. In the form of oxide, molybdenum is likely in the +6 state. During the electron transfer is likely to first restore the +5 state, but
  Restored enzyme also found that the oxidation state of molybdenum. Xanthine oxidase / dehydrogenase, aldehyde oxidase and sulfite oxidase in the composition of molybdenum in order to really know these necessary for the human body, animals and plants
  Trace elements. Human various tissues containing molybdenum, the total adult body 9mg, liver, kidney content.
 Pure molybdenum wire for cutting high-temperature furnace and EDM also line; molybdenum films used to manufacture radio equipment and X-ray equipment; plus molybdenum alloy steel can improve the elastic limit, corrosion resistance and to maintain a permanent magnetic
  And so on. Molybdenum is required seven micro-nutrients in a plant growth and development, without it, plants can not survive. With plants, animals and fish, also requires molybdenum.
