TZM alloy (Titanium-Zirconium-Molybdenum) is an alloy of 0.50% Titanium, 0.08% Zirconium and 0.02% Carbon with the balance molybdenum. TZM Molybdenum has a higher recrystallization temperature, higher strength, hardness and good ductility at room and elevated temperatures than unalloyed Molybdenum.
Advanced Refractory Metals is a trusted supplier and manufacturer of pure molybdenum and molybdenum alloys. Various forms and dimensions are available.
