Molybdenum Lanthanum is a molybdenum alloy containing Lanthanum Oxide. This oxide-dispersion strengthened molybdenum is a mixture of molybdenum with a very fine array/dispersion of lanthanum oxide particles.
This composition results in extraordinary resistance to recrystallization, ductility, and high-temperature deformation. It is an ideal material for applications requiring dimensional stability and strength at temperatures above the capabilities of either pure Molybdenum metal or Molybdenum-TZM alloy. Mill products available from either process include flat rolled sheet and plate. Refer to Product Data Sheets for P/M (powder metallurgy)
