BiMo is a bismuth-molybdenum metal alloy or intermetallic compound combining bismuth's low melting point and density characteristics with molybdenum's high strength and refractory properties. This material is primarily of research interest for specialized applications requiring unusual property combinations, such as thermal management systems, neutron shielding, or high-temperature structural applications where bismuth's low toxicity compared to lead-based alloys offers environmental advantages. The specific phase composition and industrial adoption status of BiMo remain limited, making it most relevant for engineers exploring advanced alloys or working in nuclear, aerospace, or specialized manufacturing contexts where experimental materials provide performance advantages unavailable in conventional alloys.
