Molybdenum Nanoparticles

Nano Scale (nm) Mo

Molybdenum (Mo) Nanoparticles, nanodots or nanopowder are black high surface area particles. Nanoscale Molybdenum Particles are typically 50 - 100 nanometers (nm) with specific surface area (SSA) in the 1 - 5 m 2 /g range. Nano Molybdenum Particles are also available in Ultra high purity and high purity and coated and dispersed forms. They are also available as a nanofluid through the AE Nanofluid production group. Nanofluids are generally defined as suspended nanoparticles in solution either using surfactant or surface charge technology. Nanofluid dispersion and coating selection technical guidance is also available. Development research is underway in Nano Electronics and Photonics materials, such as MEMS and NEMS, Bio Nano Materials, such as Biomarkers, Bio Diagnostics & Bio Sensors, and Related Nano Materials, for use in Polymers, Textiles, Fuel Cell Layers, Composites and Solar Energy materials. Nanopowders are analyzed for chemical composition by ICP, particle size distribution (PSD) by laser diffraction, and for Specific Surface Area (SSA) by BET multi-point correlation techniques. Novel nanotechnology applications also include Quantum Dots. High surface areas can also be achieved using solutions and using thin film by sputtering targets and evaporation technology using pellets, rod and foil.

Applications for molybdenum nanocrystals include as a high surface area catalyst and catalyst support and as the catalysts in the synthesis of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes and in coatings, plastics, nanowire, nanofiber and textiles and in certain alloy and catalyst applications. Molybdenum Nano Particles are generally immediately available in most volumes. Additional technical, research and safety (MSDS) information is available.
