The main purpose of a molybdenum thermal boat is to hold and transport materials during high-temperature processes, such as thermal evaporation, sublimation and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). These boats are loaded with solid materials, such as metals, semiconductors or compounds, which need to be heated to high temperatures to facilitate vaporization or reaction.

The shape of the molybdenum boat can be shaped into circles, rectangles, squares, trapezoids, etc. according to customer requirements. The diverse shapes of molybdenum boats enable them to adapt to different application needs. In addition, the types of molybdenum boats include flat slot molybdenum boats, V-shaped slot molybdenum boats, elliptical slot molybdenum boats, spherical slot molybdenum boats, narrow slot molybdenum boats, and aluminum evaporation boats.

These different types of molybdenum boats are designed to handle materials with different properties, such as high wettability materials, materials with low wettability, materials in a molten state, expensive materials such as gold and silver, as well as to prevent evaporation materials from sticking to the filament clip for specific applications.
