What is Ammonium Molybdate?
Molecular Formula (Ammonium Molybdate): (NH4)2MoO4
Molecular Weight: 196 g/mol
Chemical Name: Ammonium Molybdate Tetrahydrate
CAS Number: 12054-85-2
It is an ammonium salt consisting of ammonium and molybdate ions. The ratio of ammonium to molybdate is 2:1. It is also called molybdic acid ammonium salt.
In the agricultural sector, plants need molybdenum as a micronutrient. In the event of molybdenum deficiency in plants, nitrate accumulation occurs in plant leaves. Consequently, the leaves of the plants burn.
Other Names are as Follows;
Molybdic Acid Diammonium Salt
Diammonium Molybdate
Ammonium Orthomolybdate
Molybdate Diammonium
Molybdate
Molybdenum
Diammonium tetraoxomolybdate
12054-85-2
How is Ammonium Molybdate Produced?
The production of this chemical is achieved by dissolving molybdenum trioxide in a high amount of ammonia. In this process, molybdenum trioxide is dissolved first. In the subsequent stage, the water of the solution is evaporated. It is obtained through the evaporation of the solution.
What are the Physical and Chemical Properties?
In terms of physical appearance, it is in colorless solid form.
In terms of solubility, it is soluble in water. It is not soluble in alcohol. It does not have flammable properties.
Melting Point is 190 °C.
Boiling Point: No information available.
In terms of density, it is 2.50 g/ml at 25 °C.
It is a stable chemical. It can be stored at room temperature. It is incompatible with strong acids and strong oxidizing agents.
It does not interact well with chemicals such as these.
What are the Usage Areas of Ammonium Molybdate?
It is used as a source of molybdenum, which is a micronutrient required by plants.
Some problems have been reported in humans in cases of low molybdenum element levels resulting from TPN support. These problems include headache, coma, and lethargy in humans.
It has been recorded that supplementing TPN in the presence of molybdenum element for the solution of these problems results in an improvement in biochemical abnormalities.
Used for the production of desulfurization catalysts.
It is used for hydrogen removal.
Used as an analgesic in the field of pharmacology.
It is used for catalyzing alcohol oxidation reactions.
Used as an auxiliary substance in ceramic and metal production.
It can act as a semi-chemical stabilizing agent.
It can be seen as an amphoteric substance in some application areas.
Cadmium, Nickel, and Copper can be reacted with (NH4) molybdate to form a substance with higher solubility.
It functions as a molybdenum source to prevent the occurrence of diseases in cauliflower and broccoli plants grown in acidic soils. It has better solubility than sodium molybdate.
What are the Factors Affecting Its Prices?
Its prices change in parallel with the prices of the chemicals used in its production. For example, as the price of molybdenum trioxide increases, the price of ammonium molybdate will increase.
The prices of this chemical substance have risen since 1960 due to its active use in the agricultural sector. This is because the molybdenum needed by plants is often insufficient in arable areas. Consequently, molybdenum prices have constantly increased.
