High-Performance MY Pickled Strip – Molybdenum Alloy with Yttrium & Cerium Oxides
MY is a particle-reinforced molybdenum alloy that contains 0.47 percent yttrium oxide by weight and 0.08 percent cerium oxide by weight. MY adheres well to quartz glass, is easy to weld and provides better resistance to oxidation than pure molybdenum.
