Molybdenum Disilicide(MoSi2) Ceramic Target

Molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) is a kind of inorganic compound, which has the dual characteristics of metal and ceramic, and is a high temperature material with excellent performance. MoSi2 target is Metallic gray, tetragonal crystal structure with metallic luster. SiMo2 materials with high-melting-point,Molybdenum disilicide target materials has electrical conductivity, low resistivity, high electrical rate,  a good conductor.

What is the Characteristics and applications of Molybdenum disilicide ceramic alloy target ?

 Molybdenum disilicide has a good high-temperature oxidation resistance in the air, and the antioxidant temperature is as high as 1600 ° C or more, which can form a silica passivation layer on the surface at high temperatures to prevent further oxidation.

1.Molybdenum disilicide has a good high-temperature oxidation resistance in the air, and the antioxidant temperature is as high as 1600 ° C or more, which can form a silica passivation layer on the surface at high temperatures to prevent further oxidation

2.Molybdenum disilicide has a good high thermal stability

3.Molybdenum disilicide with Excellent mechanical properties: such as high hardness and compressive strength, tensile strength, bending strength is not lower than the general metal materials and some oxide materials. However, compared with metal, molybdenum disilicide has poor impact toughness and is a brittle material.

4.Molybdenum disilicide plays a key role in several fields. In the field of energy chemistry, it is an excellent material for electric heating elements, which can be used in high temperature heat exchangers, gas burners, etc., and can also be made into crucibles for melting metal. In the microelectronics industry, it is an important candidate material for integrated circuit gate and interconnect films. In aerospace, as a high-temperature antioxidant coating for turbine engine blades, impellers and other components. In the automotive industry, it is used for turbocharger rotor, valve body and other parts. These applications are mainly due to the excellent high temperature oxidation resistance of molybdenum disilicide, good chemical stability and certain mechanical properties.

 What is the production method of Molybdenum disilicide? 

Molybdenum disilicide alloy target can be prepared by a variety of methods, such as hot press sintering, self-propagating high temperature synthesis, mechanical alloying, plasma jet deposition, exothermic diffusion and other processes. These preparation methods can be selected according to the specific needs and performance requirements of the target.

In the MoSi target processing process, it is necessary to pay attention to the brittleness of molybdenum disilicide to avoid cracks or fractures during the processing. At the same time, the processing temperature and atmosphere need to be controlled.
