Molybdenum alloying in high-performance flat-rolled steel grades
Considerable progress in developing flat-rolled
steel grades has been made by the Chinese steel industry
over the recent two decades. The increasing demand for
high-performance products to be used in infrastructural
projects as well as in production of consumer and capital
goods has been driving this development until today. The
installation of state-of-the-art steel making and rolling
facilities has provided the possibility of processing the
most advanced steel grades. The production of high-performance steel grades relies on specific alloying elements
of which molybdenum is one of the most powerful. China
is nearly self-sufficient in molybdenum supplies. This
paper highlights the potential and advantages of molybdenum alloying over the entire range of flat-rolled steel
products. Specific aspects of steel property improvement
with respect to particular applications are indicated
