Is Molybdenum Disilicide a Dangerous Good?

Molybdenum disilicide is a new type of cermet material based on molybdenum silicide. Its main components are molybdenum and silicon. Molybdenum is a high-temperature material without radiation and corrosion. Silicon is also free of harmful ingredients.

Overview of Molybdenum Disilicide

Molybdenum disilicide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula MoSi2, which is a gray metallic solid. Insoluble in most acids, but soluble in nitric and hydrofluoric acids. The radii of the two kinds of atoms are not much different, and the electronegativities are relatively close, which is similar to the properties of metals and ceramics. Molybdenum disilicide is electrically conductive, and at high temperatures a passivation layer of silicon dioxide can be formed on the surface to prevent further oxidation. It is used in high temperature anti-oxidation coating materials, electric heating elements, integrated electrode films, structural materials, reinforcing agents for composite materials, wear-resistant materials, connecting materials for structural ceramics, etc.

Application of Molybdenum Disilicide

Molybdenum disilicide is used in high temperature anti-oxidation coating materials, electric heating elements, integrated electrode films, structural materials, composite material reinforcements, wear-resistant materials, and structural ceramic connecting materials. Distributed in the following industries:

1) Energy and chemical industry: electric heating elements, high temperature heat exchangers of atomic reactor devices, gas burners, high temperature thermocouples and their protective tubes, smelting vessels and crucibles (for smelting sodium, lithium, lead, bismuth, tin) and other metals ).

2) Microelectronics industry: MoSi2 and some other refractory metal silicides Ti5Si3, WSi2, TaSi2, etc. are important candidates for large-scale integrated circuit gate and interconnect films.

3) Aerospace industry: As a high temperature anti-oxidation coating material, it has been widely and deeply researched and applied. Especially as materials for turbine engine components such as blades, impellers, combustors, nozzles and seals.

4) Automobile industry: turbocharger rotors, valve bodies, spark plugs and engine parts for automobiles.

Molybdenum disilicide can also be used in the heating elements of ceramic heaters. Molybdenum silicide maintains good oxidation resistance by forming a protective film on the surface even at high temperatures of 1700°C. Molybdenum silicide is used as a structural material for high temperature components in aerospace and automotive gas turbines, gas combustion nozzles and high temperature filters.
