Molybdenum disulfide (ca. 1931) (molybdic sulfide, molybdenum sulfide) n. M0S2. A black, shiny, flaky-crystalline material used as a filler in nylons, fluorocarbons, and polystyrene to improve stiffiiess and strength, and, principally, to provide lubricity. 

The carbonates, sulfates, nitrates, and haUdes of lead (except the yeUow iodide) are colodess. Bivalent lead forms a soluble nitrate, chlorate, and acetate a slightly soluble chloride and an insoluble sulfate, carbonate, chromate, phosphate, molybdate, and sulfide. Highly crystalline basic lead salts of both anhydrous and hydrated types are readily formed. Tetrabasic lead sulfate [52732-72-6] 4PbO PbSO, and the hydrated tribasic salt [12397-06-7] ... 

Molybdenite concentrate contains about 90% M0S2. The remainder is primarily siUca, with lesser amounts of Fe, Al, and Cu. The concentrate is roasted to convert the sulfide to technical molybdic oxide. Molybdenum is added to steel in the form of this oxide. In modem molybdenum conversion plants, the oxidized sulfur formed by roasting M0S2 is converted to sulfuric acid. 

Alternative means for removal of carbonyl sulfide for gas streams iavolve hydrogenation. For example, the Beavon process for removal of sulfur compounds remaining ia Claus unit tail gases iavolves hydrolysis and hydrogenation over cobalt molybdate catalyst resulting ia the conversion of carbonyl sulfide, carbon disulfide, and other sulfur compounds to hydrogen sulfide (25). 

Hydrogen sulfide has been produced in commercial quantities by the direct combination of the elements. The reaction of hydrogen and sulfur vapor proceeds at ca 500°C in the presence of a catalyst, eg, bauxite, an aluminosihcate, or cobalt molybdate. This process yields hydrogen sulfide that is of good purity and is suitable for preparation of sodium sulfide and sodium hydrosulfide (see Sodium compounds). Most hydrogen sulfide used commercially is either a by-product or is obtained from sour natural gas. 

When the Claus reaction is carried out in aqueous solution, the chemistry is complex and involves polythionic acid intermediates (105,211). A modification of the Claus process (by Shell) uses hydrogen or a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide to reduce sulfur dioxide, carbonyl sulfide, carbon disulfide, and sulfur mixtures that occur in Claus process off-gases to hydrogen sulfide over a cobalt molybdate catalyst at ca 300°C (230). 

Reduction of sulfur dioxide by methane is the basis of an Allied process for converting by-product sulfur dioxide to sulfur (232). The reaction is carried out in the gas phase over a catalyst. Reduction of sulfur dioxide to sulfur by carbon in the form of coal has been developed as the Resox process (233). The reduction, which is conducted at 550—800°C, appears to be promoted by the simultaneous reaction of the coal with steam. The reduction of sulfur dioxide by carbon monoxide tends to give carbonyl sulfide [463-58-1] rather than sulfur over cobalt molybdate, but special catalysts, eg, lanthanum titanate, have the abiUty to direct the reaction toward producing sulfur (234). 

Silica. The siUca content of natural waters is usually 10 to (5 x lO " ) M. Its presence is considered undesirable for some industrial purposes because of the formation of siUca and siUcate scales. The heteropoly-blue method is used for the measurement of siUca. The sample reacts with ammonium molybdate at pH 1.2, and oxaUc acid is added to reduce any molybdophosphoric acid produced. The yellow molybdosiUcic acid is then reduced with l-amino-2-naphthol-4-sulfoiiic acid and sodium sulfite to heteropoly blue. Color, turbidity, sulfide, and large amounts of iron are possible interferences. A digestion step involving NaHCO can be used to convert any molybdate-unreactive siUca to the reactive form. SiUca can also be deterrnined by atomic... 

The catalysts are prepared by impregnating the support with aqueous salts of molybdenum and the promoter. In acidic solutions, molybdate ions are present largely in the form of heptamers, [Mo2024] , and the resulting surface species are beHeved to be present in islands, perhaps containing only seven Mo ions (100). Before use, the catalyst is treated with H2 and some sulfur-containing compounds, and the surface oxides are converted into the sulfides that are the catalyticaHy active species.

Of the many molybdenum sulfides which have been reported, only MoS, M0S2 and M02S3 are well established. A hydrated form of the trisulfide of somewhat variable composition is precipitated from aqueous molybdate solutions by H2S in classical analytical separations of molybdenum, but it is best prepared by thermal decomposition of the thiomolybdate, (NH4)2MoS4. MoS is formed by heating the calculated amounts of Mo and S in an evacuated tube. The black M0S2, however, is the most stable sulfide and, besides being the principal ore of Mo,...

The activity shown by unsupported Mo sulfide or Co molybdate catalysts W Is not Inconsistent with the nature of the active sites postulated. The essential pair members and Interactions could all exist on unsupported catalysts. Either Co or Mo alone can cause desulfurization. The support serves mainly to Increase the amount of exposed Co and Mo In some desirable configuration.
