Using two kinds of molybdenum(Mo) powders with different micro-morphologies as raw materials, the Mo wires with a diameter of 0.18 mm and Mo sheets with thickness of 0.5 and 0.2 mm were prepared at the same process of pressing, sintering, drawing, or rolling, respectively. By comparative analysis on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mo wires and Mo sheets, the effect of Mo powder micro-morphology on properties and quality of Mo products was studied. The results show that,compared with that prepared by traditional Mo powder with inhomogeneous particle size and aggregation, the Mo wires prepared by specific Mo powder with homogeneous particle sizes, less agglomeration, and better dispersion exhibit higher yield, higher tensile strength, and lower elongation at room temperature, and the Mo sheets also show excellent high-temperature performances and better isotropy. The essential reason for those is the difference of Mo powder micro-morphology. Inhomogeneous particle size and aggregation of Mo powder greatly influence the microstructure of Mo sintered compacts and mechanical properties of Mo products.
