Ferromolybdenum alloy Ferromolybdenum refers to an alloy formed by the interfusion of molybdenum and iron with a molybdenum content ranging from 55.0% to 75.0%. Ferromolybdenum standards require a molybdenum content of more than 55%, and most actual production contains about 60% molybdenum. It is mainly used as molybdenum additive in steelmaking.

Because molybdenum can reduce the eutectic decomposition temperature of steel and expand the quenching temperature range of steel, thereby affecting the quenching hardening depth of steel. Molybdenum is often used in combination with other elements such as chromium, nickel, barium, etc. It makes the steel have a uniform fine-grained structure and improves the strength, elasticity limit, wear resistance and impact strength of the steel.

Molybdenum is widely used in refining a series of steel types such as structural steel, spring steel, bearing steel, tool steel, stainless acid-resistant steel, heat-resistant steel and magnetic steel. In addition, molybdenum is used in alloy cast iron to make gray iron grains smaller, improve the performance of gray iron at high temperatures, and improve its wear resistance.
