Properties of oxygen sites at the MoO_3(010) surface: density functional theory cluster studies and photoemission experiments

TL;DR: In this article, a density functional theory (DFT) analysis of the O 2sp dominated valence band region of MoO 3 was carried out to examine the electronic structure of the oxide systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

An ab initio LAPW study of the α and β phases of bulk molybdenum trioxide, MoO3

TL;DR: In this paper, the structure and electronic properties of the α-MoO3 were studied with periodic LAPW calculations with the results in excellent agreement with the reported experimental pseudo-cubic results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface oxygen in catalysts based on transition metal oxides: What can we learn from cluster DFT calculations?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed cluster model studies by means of ab initio DFT method to examine electronic properties of different surface O atoms in several V2O5 and MoO3 systems and correlate them with catalytic behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electronic structure of MoO2. DFT periodic and cluster model studies

TL;DR: In this paper, the electronic properties of MoO 2 bulk and (0, 1, 1) surface are discussed. But the surface retains the metallic character of the bulk, and it is found that Fermi level is located within the band dominated by d molybdenum orbitals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of one-dimensional molybdenum oxide on Mo(112)

TL;DR: In this article, the atomic structure of a reconstructed Mo(1/1/2)-O(2/2/3) surface has been revisited using photoelectron spectroscopy with synchrotron radiation, scanning tunneling microscopy, infrared reflection absorption spectrography and density functional theory.

Versatile polystyrene—ruthenium hydrogenation catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the cyclo-olefinic ligands, initially present in Ru(COT)(COD), are displaced by the phenyl rings of the polystyrene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anomalous behavior of molybdenum oxide as a fire retardant for polyvinyl chloride

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed investigation of the pyrolysis of polyvinyl chloride by thermogravimetric analysis and mass spectroscopy showed that the addition of MoO 3 results in the reduction of the temperature at which HCl is evolved, an increase in the temperature in the organic pyrozate is produced, and a change in compostion of this pyrozeate from aromatic to aliphatic.
Journal ArticleDOI

MoO3 additives for PVC: A study of the molecular interactions

TL;DR: In this paper, the detailed molecular interactions occurring during thermal degradation of PVC polymer formulations containing MoO3 additives are investigated using laser microprobe techniques coupled with mass analysis of the volatile pyrolysis products.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermochemical Evaluation of Combustion Synthesis of MoSi2─SiC Composites

TL;DR: In this paper, a self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) of SiC-particulate-reinforced MoSi[sub 2] composites is described.

Electrochemical reduction of Group 6 metal hexacarbonyls in aprotic solvents

TL;DR: The mechanism of the reduction of [Cr(CO)6] to [Cr2(CO10]2] has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry, and it has shown that this species is a species stable on the time scale of a few seconds as discussed by the authors.
