Few companies offer molybdenum for mechanical engineering; Plansee produces the metal through
hydrogen reduction of a powder of mixed ammonium molybdate and molybdenum trioxide. The metal powder is then
sintered (1800-2200°C under hydrogen), and finally hot (1200-1500°C) laminated, forged, extruded...
