Alloy: An alloy is a mixture of two or more elements, where at least one element is a metal. Molybdenum is often used as an alloying agent in steel to enhance its strength and corrosion resistance.
Melting Point: The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from a solid to a liquid state. Molybdenum has a high melting point of 2,623 degrees Celsius (4,753 degrees Fahrenheit).
Stainless Steel: Stainless steel is a type of steel that contains chromium, which helps prevent rusting and corrosion. Molybdenum can be added to stainless steel to improve its strength and resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion.
