Neodymium molybdate

Neodymium molybdate is an inorganic compound, with the chemical formula of Nd2(MoO4)3.

It can be prepared by reacting neodymium oxide and molybdenum trioxide at a high temperature:[2] It can also be prepared by reacting neodymium nitrate and (NH4)6Mo7O24, treating the obtained precipitate at a high temperature.

[1] It reacts with sodium molybdate at a high temperature to obtain NaNd(MoO4)2.

[3] It reacts at roughly 350°C to 700°C with hydrogen sulfide to obtain neodymium sulfide and molybdenum disulfide.

[4] At roughly 780K to 870K, it can be reduced by hydrogen to obtain Nd2Mo3O9.
