Abstract: | Molybdenum dioxide (MoO2) is a transition metal oxide with unusual metal-like electrical conductivity and high catalytic activity toward reforming
hydrocarbons. This review covers the synthesis techniques used to fabricate MoO2 in a variety of morphologies and particle sizes. Processing from molybdenum ore and reduction from MoO3 are also covered, with emphasis on reduction mechanisms and kinetic considerations. Discussions of various solution-based
and gas phase synthesis techniques shed light on strategies to achieve various unique morphologies, which leads into a brief
discussion of nanoscale MoO2. Nanoscale MoO2 is of interest for important technological applications including catalysts for partial oxidation of hydrocarbons, solid
oxide fuel cell anodes, and high-capacity reversible lithium ion battery anodes. |
