Molybdenum (Cat No.: M006078) is a silvery-white metal essential in various industrial and biological processes. It has a high melting point and excellent resistance to corrosion, making it ideal for steel alloys, electrical contacts, and catalysts. Biologically, it is crucial for enzymes involved in nitrogen metabolism in plants and animals. Molybdenum’s unique properties support energy production and detoxification in the human body. Found naturally in minerals like molybdenite, it plays a significant role in agriculture, electronics, and environmental technologies.
