Research on the Application of Molybdenum Foil in the Medical Industry
Molybdenum foil, a high-performance material characterized by high melting point, thermal stability, and corrosion resistancw, has emerged as a critical component in advanced medical technologies.
1. Key Applications in Medical Devices
X-Ray Tube Components
Molybdenum foil and molybdenum-rhenium alloys(Mo-Re alloys) are widely used in CT scan equipment and X-ray tube target materials. These materials withstand extreme temperatures (>2,000°C) and mechanical stress during high-speed rotation (up to 10,000 RPM), ensuring stable X-ray generation for medical imaging.
Sterilization and Vacuum Sealing
In UV sterilization lamps, molybdenum foil enables vacuum-tight sealing with quartz glass, critical for hospital-grade disinfection systems. Its oxidation resistance ensures long-term reliability in ozone-free UV lamps, reducing environmental pollution.
2. Emerging Biomedical Innovations
Implantable Electronics
Molybdenum foil’s biocompatibility and thermal conductivity make it suitable for implantable sensors and neural interface devices. Research highlights its potential in long-term bioelectronic implants due to minimal tissue reactivity.
Studies explore molybdenum-based nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery and bioimaging contrast agents. Its high surface-area-to-volume ratio enhances drug-loading efficiency.
Mosten Alloy can produce molybdenum sheet, molybdenum block, molybdenum foil, molybdenum rod, molybdenum wire, molybdenum cup, molybdenum processing workpiece according to customer demand.
