Molybdic acid is a white, crystalline solid used in catalyst production, metallurgy, and as a precursor for molybdenum-based compounds. It is also used in pigment formulations for paints and coatings and in metal extraction and refining operations. It is available in powder or solid form, stable at ambient temperatures, and requires careful handling due to its warning signal. CAS: 7782-91-4, molecular formula: H2MoO4, molecular weight: 161.95 g/mol. Molekula supplies molybdic acid from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
