TZM Alloy, TZM Molybdenum Alloy
TZM is a molybdenum alloy that contains titanium, zirconium, and carbon. The letters "TZM" stand for the initials of the metals, with "T" for titanium, "Z" for zirconium, and "M" for molybdenum. The alloy is known for its high-temperature strength, excellent creep resistance, and good thermal conductivity. It is commonly used in applications where high-temperature strength and dimensional stability are required, such as aerospace and defense, furnace construction, and high-temperature processing.
Composition of TZM alloy:
| Element | Composition (% by weight) |
|---|---|
| Mo | 91.1-97.0 |
| Ti | 0.4-0.55 |
| Zr | 0.06-0.12 |
| C | 0.01-0.08 |
| Others | ≤ 0.5 |
CG Material can provide TZM alloy in various forms such as sheets, rods, bars, and wire, and it can be easily machined and welded.
