Annealed Graphite-Free Molybdenum Wire
In high-end vacuum electroheating, electron tube manufacturing and semiconductor vacuum cavities, any trace carbon impurities or surface residues may lead to the pollution of the entire vacuum, and even cause catastrophic out-gassing. Annealed, graphite-free molybdenum wire (Annealed & non-graphite Molybdenum Wire), by completely removing the graphite lubricating layer on the surface and combining with deep vacuum annealing process, is becoming the first choice of engineers who pursue extreme purity and excellent ductility.

1. Basic performance: physical co-performance of purity and flexibility
Different from conventional "black molybdenum wire", this specially treated white molybdenum wire has the following core characteristics:
Extreme cleanliness: The graphite coating is completely removed from the surface, showing a metallic silver-gray luster, ensuring an extremely low deflation rate under high temperature and vacuum.
Excellent ductility: The "annealed state" endows molybdenum wire with excellent flexibility and elongation, making it difficult to break when winding micro coils or complex geometric shapes.
High melting point stability: inherits the high melting point of molybdenum metal at 2623 °C, and has excellent tensile strength at high temperatures.
2. Chemical composition and technical indicators (Ultra-High Purity)
We use high-purity molybdenum billets above 99.95% to ensure that the impurity content is strictly controlled within the PPM level.

3. Lean process: from physical cleaning to vacuum annealing
The birth of each plate of clean molybdenum wire has gone through a process beyond the conventional:
Hydrogen/electrolytic cleaning: Thoroughly peel off the remaining graphite coating from the drawing process through chemical or electrochemical methods.
Continuous vacuum annealing: Continuous annealing in an ultra-high vacuum or high-purity hydrogen furnace not only releases processing stress, but also further removes internal gas impurities.
Precision straightening: Ensure molybdenum wire has good straightness when unfolded, no dead pleats, suitable for automatic winding equipment.
4. Product specifications and basic parameters (Customizable)
Diameter range (Diameter): 0.03 mm-2.0 mm (supports ultra-thin filament customization).
Surface state: Silver gray metallic luster, no scratches, no visible pollutants.
Packing: Vacuum sealed plastic tray to prevent secondary oxidation during storage.
Implementation standard: ASTM B387 (Molybdenum and Molybdenum Alloy Wire Standard).
5. Surface treatment: the balance of bright surface and ultra-clean
Alkaline washing/chemical polishing: Ensure that the surface is free of microscopic cracks and pits, and thermal radiation scattering.
Ultrasonic cleaning: 100% removal of surface dust, up to the laboratory level use standards.
6. Core advantage: Why do senior thermal field designers specify to use "white molybdenum wire"?
Non-Contamination risk: Removes the graphite layer (the main source of carbon), prevents carbon from reacting with residual oxygen in the vacuum chamber, and protects fragile oxide cathodes or semiconductor wafers.
"Worry-free winding": the structure after annealing is uniform, the rebound is small when winding a tight coil, and the dimensional stability is excellent.
Extremely fast bleeding: shortens the vacuum time of the vacuum system and improves production efficiency.
7. Application field: covering the most stringent scenarios
High-end light sources and electronic tubes: manufacture cathode supports for power tubes, gate lines and lead-out lines for quartz lamps.
Vacuum electric heating industry: As a vacuum furnace micro heating element, binding wire or thermocouple protective layer.
Semiconductor and thin film technology: as electrodes or hooks in ion implanters and physical vapor deposition (PVD) devices.
Medical devices: Manufacture of internal components for special X-ray tubes.
