Molybdenum Disc Description
Molybdenum discs and molybdenum squares are manufactured using technical processes. Molybdenum has a grey colour and an exceptionally high melting point. It does not occur in nature as a free metal but exists in various oxidation states within minerals. Its tendency to form stable carbides makes it a preferred material for the production of steel alloys, high-strength alloys and superalloys. Molybdenum compounds generally exhibit low water solubility and are employed in industry under high pressure and elevated temperatures, for instance in the production of pigments and catalysts.
The molybdenum discs and molybdenum squares offered by Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) have a low coefficient of thermal expansion similar to that of silicon. They provide machinability that meets industrial standards. We supply options with both polished and brushed surfaces.

Applications of Molybdenum Discs
Molybdenum is employed as a critical component in high-performance semiconductors that require high reliability for thermal conduction. It is used as a contact material in silicon-controlled rectifiers, diodes, transistors and thyristors (GTOs). In integrated circuits (ICs), large-scale integrated circuits (LSIs) and hybrid circuits, molybdenum functions as a heatsink, thereby contributing to effective thermal management in electronic devices.
Molybdenum Disc Packaging
Our molybdenum discs and molybdenum squares are handled with care to minimise damage during storage and transport, thereby preserving the quality of our products in their original condition.
