Molybdenum(VI) oxide, 99.5%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals
Supplier: Thermo Scientific Chemicals A1115918
Description
Molybdenum(VI) oxide is a very promising and stable oxide for electrochromic applications and used as a catalyst in the oil industry. It is also used to make metal molybdenum. It has a wide band gap type semiconductor with distinctive electrochromic, thermochromic, and photochromic properties, has been widely investigated as smart materials for catalysis sensors, lubricants, lithium battery, organic solar cells, and display materials.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
