Molybdenum Foil for Vacuum Technology and High-temperature Applications

Molybdenum foil is a thin sheet of molybdenum metal, typically used for high-temperature applications, radiation shielding, and electrical conductivity. The regular thickness of this metal foil can vary, depending on the specific application. It is typically available in thicknesses ranging from 0.001 inches (0.025 mm) to 0.005 inches (0.127 mm). 

The exact thickness depends on the requirements of the application and the manufacturer's specifications. For example, thinner foils may be used for applications where high electrical conductivity is required, while thicker foils may be used for radiation shielding or as a structural component in high-temperature furnace parts.

Molybdenum foil has several applications due to its unique properties:

High-temperature applications: the metal has a high melting point, making it suitable for use in high-temperature furnace parts and in the production of refractory materials.

Radiation shielding: the foil is used in nuclear power plants as a shielding material against radiation, due to its ability to absorb gamma rays and other high-energy particles.

Electrical conductivity: it has a high electrical conductivity, making it suitable for use as a conductor in electronic components and other electrical applications.

Vacuum technology: it is used as a base material in vacuum technology due to its low outgassing rate and high thermal conductivity.

Aerospace: it is used in the aerospace industry as a material for high-temperature furnace components, electrical conductors, and radiation shielding.

Overall, moly foil is widely used in various industrial applications due to its high melting point, high thermal and electrical conductivity, and low thermal expansion.
