Why Does Molybdenum Improve Corrosion Resistance?

Molybdenum improves corrosion resistance in alloys because it has a high affinity for oxygen, which forms a protective oxide layer on the surface of the metal. This oxide layer acts as a barrier to further corrosion by preventing the underlying metal from coming into contact with corrosive substances such as water or air. Molybdenum also helps to stabilize the passivity of the oxide layer by reducing the chances of localized corrosion or pitting. In addition, molybdenum can enhance the corrosion resistance of alloys by reducing the susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking and improving the resistance to aggressive media such as acids, chlorides, and sulfides.
