Silver molybdate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ag2MoO4. It is a yellow solid that crystallizes in the cubic system and exhibits dimorphism. It is often used in glass.[ citation needed ]

Structure

Silver molybdate crystals present two types of electronic structure, depending on the pressure conditions to which the crystal is subjected. [1] At room temperature, it exhibits a spinel-type cubic structure, known as β-Ag2MoO4, which is more stable in nature. However, when exposed to high hydrostatic pressure, the tetragonal α-Ag2MoO4 forms as a metastable phase. [2]

Synthesis and properties

α-Ag2MoO4

α-Ag2MoO4 can be prepared by solution-phase precipitation under ambient conditions, using 3-bis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine (dpp) as a doping agent. [3] The pH of the starting solution influences the growth and formation processes of distinct heterostructures (brooms, flowers and rods). [4] [5]

β-Ag2MoO4

β-Ag2MoO4 crystals can be prepared by solid-state reaction or oxide mixture at high temperature, [6] melt-quenching, [7] and Czochralski growth. [8]

Additional methods include co-precipitation,[ citation needed ] microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis, [9] a dynamic template route using polymerization of acrylamide assisted templates, [10] and an impregnation/calcination method. [11]

β-Ag2MoO4 microcrystals can be synthesized by precipitation employing polar solvents. [12]

Photocatalytic properties of β–Ag2MoO4 crystals can be improved through hydrothermal processing at different temperatures. [13] The replacement of Ag atoms with Zn to form silver-zinc molybdate [β–(Ag2−2xZnx)MoO4] microcrystals by a sonochemical method also leads to improvements. [14] These crystals are able to degrade rhodamine B and Remazol Brilliant Violet 5R. [13] [14]

Ag-Ag2MoO4 composites

Ag-Ag2MoO4 composites can be prepared by microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis. These composites present photocatalytic activity for the degradation of rhodamine B under visible light. [15]

Other properties

Ag2MoO4 mixed with graphite acts as a good lubricant for Ni-based composites, improving the tribological properties of the system. [16]
