Molybdenum; wire

HS v2017 Code: 810296

About molybdenum; wire

hs code 810296 covers the classification of molybdenum wire, a critical material used in a wide range of industrial applications. Molybdenum is a refractory metal known for its high melting point, strength, and resistance to corrosion, making it an essential component in various manufacturing processes. The global molybdenum wire market plays a significant role in supporting industries such as 840120 Machinery and 854430 Electrical equipment, contributing to the overall growth and development of the international trade landscape.

Production process

Molybdenum wire is produced through a multi-step process that involves the extraction and purification of molybdenum ore, followed by the fabrication of the wire. The ore is first crushed, concentrated, and then reduced to molybdenum powder. The powder is then melted and extruded into wire form, which may undergo further drawing and annealing to achieve the desired diameter and properties.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of molybdenum wire include molybdenum ore, reducing agents (such as hydrogen or carbon), and specialized equipment for melting, extruding, and drawing the wire. Additionally, the manufacturing process requires significant energy inputs, such as electricity or natural gas, to power the various stages of production.

Production outputs

Molybdenum wire is a versatile material with a wide range of applications. It is commonly used in the production of 851140 Electrical resistors, 854430 Electrical equipment, and 840120 Machinery components, where its unique properties make it an essential component. The output of molybdenum wire may also be consumed by industries producing 810294 Molybdenum; bars, rods, angles, shapes and sections and 810295 Molybdenum; plates, sheets, strip and foil.
