What Are The Uses Of Molybdenum In Coating Industry?
Due to the rapid expansion of the electronic information industry, the use of Molybdenum as sputter target has increased in a linear manner. Sputter targets are essential in the production of thin film materials. The improvement of thin film technology followed extensive research on target materials. Applications include flat panel displays, semiconductors, magnetic and optical data storage, solar energy systems, automotive components, glass manufacturing and decorative industries.

Molybdenum Target has properties that meet the requirements of several target materials. It is used in the aircraft display sector, thin film solar cell production, semiconductor manufacturing, medical technology, mechanical processing and solid-state lubrication.
Molybdenum for Thin Film Coating
In recent years, LCD, PDP and other planar display electrodes have adopted Molybdenum alloy targets increasingly. In TFT-LCD production, the gate electrode is a key component. Historically, Cr/Al was used as the gate electrode material. The specific impedance and gate voltage of Chromium are approximately 50% lower than those of Molybdenum. Hexavalent Chromium is produced during etching, which raises environmental and health concerns. Consequently, many companies have switched to Mo/Al as gate electrode material, thereby increasing the demand for Molybdenum targets.
Molybdenum targets may be combined with other target materials during sputtering or under different technological conditions. They are used in semiconductor wiring, medical equipment manufacturing, mechanical processing and solid-state lubrication.
Molybdenum for Sputtering Applications
Another important use of Molybdenum in the coating industry is spraying. Spraying Molybdenum onto the surfaces of piston rings, bearings, extrusion equipment, engine blocks and turbine components increases wear resistance.
