MOLYBDENUM NITRIDE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

gray; fcc, a=0.416 nm; microhardness 1700; transition temp 5.0K [KIR81]

Uses

Molybdenum nitride (δ–MoN) is an important functional material due to its impressive catalytic, energy storage, and superconducting properties.

Structure and conformation

The δ-MoN phase of hexagonal structure is a potential candidate for an ultra-incompressible and hard material and can be compared with c-BN and diamond. The predicted superconducting temperature of the metastable MoN phase of NaCl-B1-type cubic structure is the highest of all refractory carbides and nitrides.
