The manganese steel plates were replaced with much lighter 25 mm (1.0 in) molybdenum steel plates allowing for higher speed, greater maneuverability, and better protection. [20] The Germans also used molybdenum-doped steel for heavy artillery, like in the super-heavy howitzer Big Bertha , [ 49 ] because traditional steel melts at the ...

SAE 316 stainless steel is a molybdenum-alloyed steel and the second most common austenitic stainless steel (after grade 304). It is the preferred steel for use in marine environments because of its greater resistance to pitting corrosion than most other grades of steel without molybdenum. [1]
Molybdenum: 0.2–5 Stable carbides; inhibits grain growth. Increases the toughness of steel, thus making molybdenum a very valuable alloy metal for making the cutting parts of machine tools and also the turbine blades of turbojet engines. Also used in rocket motors. Nickel: 2–5 Toughener 12–20 Increases corrosion resistance Niobium —
41xx steel is a family of SAE steel grades, as specified by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). Alloying elements include chromium and molybdenum, and as a result these materials are often informally referred to as chromoly steel (common variant stylings include chrome-moly, cro-moly, CrMo, CRMO, CR-MOLY, and similar).
2 He helium-4; Hoffer et al. 0.19085 g/cm 3 (from 20.9730 cm 3 /mole; hcp crystal melting to He-II superfluid at 0 K, 25.00 atm) : 0.19083 g/cm 3 (from 20.9749 cm 3 /mole; at local min. density, hcp melting to He-II: 0.884 K, 25.00 atm)
The school's latest experiment uses graphene material that's 5 percent as dense as steel and ten times the metal's strength, showing what's possible when the composite is more than just a flat sheet.
The main differences in composition, when compared with austenitic stainless steel is that duplex steels have a higher chromium content, 20–28%; higher molybdenum, up to 5%; lower nickel, up to 9% and 0.05–0.50% nitrogen. Both the low nickel content and the high strength (enabling thinner sections to be used) give significant cost benefits.
