Not only do they have their use in highly technical applications; sometimes these structures can take the shape of beautiful art.
Global production of molybdenum falls, usage is static
International Molybdenum Association (IMOA) shows that global production of molybdenum fell by 1% to 142.4million pounds (mlbs) in Q3 2022, whereas global usage of...
IMOA’s market development work deliver positive results
IMOA’s market development work is delivering positive results. For example, IMOA played an integral role in type 316 stainless steel being designated as the material of choice for secondary water conveying systems in Shenzhen.
Shenzhen’s secondary water supply systems
One in three people worldwide live without access to clean drinking water. Even major cities with established utilities are projected to fall short of demand for potablewater.

Global molybdenum production fell, usage rise: IMOA
Figures released by the International Molybdenum Association (IMOA) show that the global production of molybdenum fell by 3% to 142.8 mlbs in Q2 2021
Hudson Yards: from railyard to riches
The largest private development in US history, Hudson Yards boasts a modern, sustainable design. Its prime location near the Hudson River in New York City comes at the price of exposure to both marine and de-icing salts. With corrosion resistance in mind, stainless steel emerges as an integral part of the mini-city, most notably in an interactive centerpiece called the “Vessel.”
Featured Story – Robots, pigs and pipes
Groundbreaking robots in the UK eliminate the logistical and environmental impacts of gas line excavation by taking measurements from inside the pipe. To withstand the extreme conditions there, 2507 super-duplex stainless steel was chosen for the robots’ chassis.
