Molybdenum oxide in Grades A, B and C with reported Mo contents of 62.60%, 61.5% and 60.6%. Supplied in steel drums with a minimum order quantity of 20 metric tonnes.
Molybdenum oxide is a molybdenum-bearing raw material used in ferromolybdenum production, alloy steel, stainless steel and other metallurgical processes. Grade selection depends on molybdenum content, copper and carbon levels, other impurities and the requirements of the receiving process.
Raimand offers molybdenum oxide in Grades A, B and C with typical molybdenum contents of 62.60%, 61.5% and 60.6%, respectively, on a dry basis. These percentages represent elemental molybdenum content and should not be interpreted as molybdenum trioxide (MoO₃) purity. Copper, carbon and other impurity contents vary between grades; refer to the individual grade tables when comparing specifications.
All three grades have a typical particle-size distribution of 97% in the 0–4 mm fraction and 3% in the 4–7 mm fraction. The product is supplied in steel drums with a minimum order quantity of 20 metric tonnes.
When requesting a quotation, specify your preferred grade, required molybdenum content, impurity limits, particle-size requirements, quantity and destination. Final specifications, drum weights and delivery terms should be agreed for each order.
