the voltammetric characteristics of mo (vi) oxinate at the mercury electrode, in the presence of tri-butylammonium perchlorate (tri-bap) and piperidinium perchlorate (pp) + piperidine (p) as  two different types supporting electrolytes, have been studied in chloroform. with the both supporting electrolytes a two electron irreversible process for the reduction  of mo (vi) oxinate was observed. p...

Nitrate reductase from mutant 305 o f Chlamydomonas reinhardii has been purified about 90-fold and biochemically characterized. The enzyme can use reduced flavins and viologens as electron donors to reduce nitrate but, unlike the nitrate reductase com plex from its parental wild strain, lacks NAD(P)H-nitrate reductase and NAD(P)H-cytochrom e c reductase activities, does not bind to Blue-Agarose...

A chitosan resin functionalized with 3-nitro-4-amino benzoic acid moiety (CCTS-NABA resin) was newly synthesized for the collection/concentration of trace molybdenum by using cross-linked chitosan (CCTS) as base material. The carboxyl group of the moiety was chemically attached to amino group of cross-linked chitosan through amide bond formation. The adsorption behavior of molybdenum as well as...

Two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum oxides at their various stoichiometries are promising candidates for generating plasmon resonances in visible light range. Herein, we demonstrate plasmonic 2D molybdenum oxide flakes for gas sensing applications, in which hydrogen (H2) is selected as a model gas. The 2D molybdenum oxide flakes are obtained using a grinding-assisted liquid exfoliation method and e...

High-resolution molybdenum K-edge X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) was used to characterize the K beta(4) and K beta' ' valence-to-core transition bands in the oxo-Mo compounds K(2)MoO(4), MoO(S(2)CNEt(2))(2), and MoO(2)(S(2)CNEt(2))(2). The K beta(4) and K beta' ' emission bands are attributed to transitions to the Mo 1s core hole from molecular orbitals possessing primarily molybdenum 4d and...

In this study, molybdenum-copper/alumina nano composite was synthesized with mechano-chemical method using high energy planetary ball milling. The molybdenum oxide, copper oxide and aluminum powder were used as starting materials and reaction appeared to occur through a rapid combustion reaction process. The evaluation of powder particles after different milling times was studied by X-ray diffr...
