Attribute:
TZM is a particle-strengthened molybdenum based alloy containing titanium, zirconium and carbon.
Advantages of TZM compared to pure molybdenum:
Above 1100°C tensile strength is about twice that of unalloyed molybdenum
Better creep resistance
Higher recrystallization temperature
Better welding properties.
General Properties:
Density: 10.16 g/cc at 20°C
Recrystallization Temperature: 1425 to 1595°C
Stress-Relief Temperature: 1 hour at 1095 to 1260°C
Liquidus Temperature: 2620°C
Chemical Composition:
TZM: Mo + 0.40~0.55%Ti + 0.06~0.12%Zr + 0.01~0.04% C
