Nonferrous metal salts and oxides
Chemical products based on molybdenum:
atomic number: 42 | atomic weight: 95,95
Molybdenum is naturally found in the earth's crust at a concentration of 7.2 x 10-40% and is not a free element. Molybdenum has many colours; as a compact mass it is a silvery white metal, while in powder form, it has a dull grey colour. Industrially, Molybdenum is used in the production of anodes and electronic tube supports. It also finds use as a catalyst in the oil industry for removing sulphurs, nitrogen and noxious metals.
- ammonium molybdate
- Ammonium molibdate comes in the form of colourless or slightly greenish monoclinic crystals or in the form of a white crystalline powder. It can be obtained by dissolving the molybdic trioxide in ammonia and letting it crystallise. Ammonium molybdate is soluble in cold water, insoluble in ethanol and decomposes in hot water. Also known as basic ammonium molybdate, ammonium molybdate is used in various sectors: to decorate ceramics, in chemical analysis to find the presence of phosphates, arsenics, lead and in the chemical industry as a source of molybdenum ions.
- molybdenum disulfide
- Molybdenum disulphide is naturally found in the form of molibdnite mineral and has an appearance very similar to graphite. Molybdenum sulphide is not very soluble in water while it easily dissolves in acqua regia (mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid) and hot water in some inorganic acids like nitric, sulphuric and hydrochloric acid. In its pure state, this product is used as a lubricant.
- molybdenum trioxide
- Molybdenum trioxide is frequently found in nature but always in the form of molybdite. Also known as molybdic trioxide, molybdenum trioxide is a white to yellow crystalline powder that is not very soluble in cold water, but more soluble in hot water. Molybdenum trioxide can be used in various applications: in the petroleum industry for the removal of sulphur and nitrogenous products; in the chemical industry for a number of oxidation processes, in the enamel industry.
