Refractory metals have one characteristic in common: an exceptionally high melting point. Tungsten, for example, melts at 3410oC (6170oF), which is more than double that of iron and ten times that of lead. As a group, they are found in one section of the periodic table of elements. Although there are twelve refractory metals, only five are widely used: Tungsten, Molybdenum, Niobium, Tantalum and Rhenium. All but Rhenium have a body-centered cubic structure. Despite the fact that refractory metals have many similar qualities-such as high density, resistance to wear and corrosion-each metal is different in its own way, providing each with its own individual combination of qualities. Many of these individual qualities are rather unique, such as an ability to combine with gases and then release them under heat. Alloys containing varying amounts of refractory metals are vital to virtually every major industry, including automotive, mining, aerospace, chemical and petroleum processing, electrical and electronics, medical electronics and prosthetics, metal processing, nuclear technology and ordnance.
The global market for Refractory Metals was estimated to be worth US$ 1374 million in 2023 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1591.9 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 2.1% during the forecast period 2024-2030
Global Refractory Metals key players include Xiamen Tungsten, CMOC, Molymet, H.C. Starck, A.L.M.T., etc. China is the largest market, with a share about 40%, followed by North America, with a share about 30 percent. In terms of product, Molybdenum Meta is the largest segment, with a share about 50%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Steel Industry, followed by Electronics and Electrical Industry, Carbide Tools and Wear Parts, and Aerospace.
