In terms of wear resistance of tungsten wire for textiles weaving gloves and molybdenum wire, the following is their comparison:
- Wear resistance of tungsten wire
Tungsten has extremely high hardness and strength, with a Mohs hardness of nearly 9, which is close to the hardness of diamond. This makes tungsten wire show excellent wear resistance under friction and wear.
Tungsten wire can maintain its hardness and wear resistance in high temperature environments, and is suitable for environments that require wear resistance and long-term use.
- Wear resistance of molybdenum wire
Molybdenum has a lower hardness, with a Mohs hardness of about 5.5. Although molybdenum wire also has good strength, it is not as good as tungsten wire in terms of wear resistance.
Molybdenum wire shows good stability at high temperatures, but compared with tungsten, molybdenum has poor wear resistance and is prone to wear during friction.
- Comparison and application suggestions
Due to its excellent hardness and wear resistance, tungsten wire is more suitable in high temperature and high friction environments where wear resistance is required. It can maintain long-term use under harsh conditions without severe wear.
Although molybdenum wire also has good performance in high temperature environments, it does not perform as well as tungsten wire in applications that require wear resistance. Molybdenum wire is more suitable for use in environments that require high temperature stability but not severe friction.
