Price Ranges for Refractory Metals

Refractory metals are a group of metallic elements that exhibit high melting points and exceptional resistance to heat and wear. Some common refractory metals include tungsten, molybdenum, niobium, tantalum, and rhenium. The prices of refractory metals can vary based on factors such as market demand, supply availability, purity level, and global economic conditions.

As of the most recent data available, here are the approximate price ranges for some of the commonly used refractory metals:

  1. Tungsten: Approximately $25 - $30 per kilogram
  2. Molybdenum: Approximately $10 - $15 per kilogram
  3. Niobium: Approximately $60 - $70 per kilogram
  4. Tantalum: Approximately $300 - $350 per kilogram
  5. Rhenium: Approximately $2000 - $2500 per kilogram

Please note that these prices can fluctuate over time and may vary based on specific grades, forms (e.g., powder, alloy), and market conditions. It is advisable to consult up-to-date sources or directly contact suppliers for precise pricing information.
