TZM Alloy Plate

TZM alloy plate is a molybdenum-based alloy composed of titanium, zirconium and molybdenum, with high melting point, high strength, high elastic modulus, low linear expansion coefficient, low vapor pressure, good electrical and thermal conductivity, strong corrosion resistance and good high-temperature mechanical properties. This alloy is usually prepared into bars and plates and is widely used in fields that require these characteristics, such as isostatic pressing of components, sintering and heat treatment furnaces, rotating anodes for metal medical diagnosis, ship annealing and sintering processes (temperatures up to 1400°C), injection molding hot runner nozzle molding tools, mold light alloy castings, isothermal forging of steel billets, etc. The preparation methods of TZM alloy include arc melting-casting and powder metallurgy, the latter of which can save large equipment, simplify processes, shorten production cycles, reduce consumption, increase production capacity and yield rate, and thus reduce costs.

    FAQ for TZM alloy plate 

1. What is a TZM alloy?

TZM alloy is definied as an alloy consisting of molybdenum as a matrix metal and titanium (Ti), zirconium (Zr), and carbon (C) as alloying elements. Zenith of TZM alloys Strength and Creep Resistance surpasses that of pure Molybdenum because alloys are almost 800 degrees Celcius higher than Molybdenum Conditions.

2.What are the main advantages of TZM plates?

✅ High exceptional values of molybdenum alloy melting point (2620℃)

✅ Good thermal conductivity with elevated temperature strength (600MPa@1000℃)

✅ The metals do not shatter with temperature shock, the value is excellent

3. What are the typical applications?
Rocket engine nozzle

First wall of nuclear fusion device

Single crystal furnace heating element

High-temperature mold and fixture

4. What is the maximum operating temperature?
Short-term: 1800℃ (inert gas environment)

Long-term: 1500℃ (surface coating protection required)

5. How to perform machining?
Cutting: Water jet or EDM wire cutting is recommended

Drilling: Use carbide drill, low speed and high feed

Surface treatment: Grinding and polishing can be performed to Ra<0.4μm

6. What should be paid attention to when welding?

Vacuum electron beam welding or laser welding must be used

The surface must be thoroughly cleaned before welding

It is recommended to use welding wire with matching composition

7. How to prevent high temperature oxidation?

Surface coating is required above 800℃:

Silicide coating (resistant to 1700℃)

Plasma sprayed zirconium oxide

8. What are the standard specifications?

Thickness: 0.5-50mm

Size: Maximum 1200×3000mm

Surface: polished, alkali washed or polished

9. What are the advantages compared with pure molybdenum plate?

High temperature strength increased by 40%

Recrystallization temperature increased by 400℃

Better creep resistance

10. What should be paid attention to when purchasing?
Confirm material certification (such as ASTM B386)

Check ultrasonic flaw detection report

QPL certification is required for military use

11. How to store and maintain?

Store in a dry environment

Avoid contact with carbon steel

Check surface condition regularly

12. What is the MOQ?
A: Depends on quantity, generally, no MOQ limit.

13. How to pay for it?
A: A bank transfer (T/T) will be acceptable.

14. What is the delivery time?
A: around 7-20 days which depends on the quantity and production.
