ASTM International’s reactive and refractory metals and alloys committee ( B10 ) has approved a new standard that will provide specifications for isotropic pure molybdenum. The new standard covers grades 1 and 2 of unalloyed monolithic forms of molybdenum (UNS R03610). Due to its high temperature strength, resistance to aggressive media, high thermal conductivity, and low coefficient of thermal…, Media Inquiries:, Gavin O’Reilly, tel +1.610.832.9618; goreilly@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Jennifer Tursi, tel +1.610.832.9653; jtursi@astm.org Release #11717 ###
