Molybdenum-copper composites (AMC) offer high thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion, and excellent heat dissipation.

Molybdenum-Copper Composites

Our molybdenum-copper composites (AMC) combine the unique properties of molybdenum with the high thermal conductivity of copper, resulting in a powerful metal matrix composite for thermal management.

Molybdenum provides a very high melting point, low thermal expansion, and notable thermal conductivity, while copper’s exceptional heat transfer efficiency makes it ideal for dissipating heat.

Molybdenum-Copper Advantages

With a unique blend of mechanical and chemical properties, molybdenum-copper offers exceptional benefits for thermal management applications, including:

High Thermal Conductivity:
Our advanced powder metallurgy composites deliver superior through-thickness thermal conductivity, outperforming competitive materials.

High Ductility:
Excellent ductility allows precise machining into complex shapes without compromising strength, making AMC ideal for intricate heat dissipation components. Our composites are also readily plateable.

Excellent dimensional stability:
With its excellent dimensional stability and corrosion resistance, our material ensures long product service life.

Customized Thermal Expansion:
AMC materials are available in standard compositions, but we also offer custom-engineered formulations to meet specific thermal expansion requirements.

Molybdenum-Copper Applications

Due to its high thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion, molybdenum-copper (AMC) is used for a variety of semiconductor and electronic applications including:
