Molybdenum in Molybdenum Steels

A method has been developed for the determination of traces of molybdenum present in molybdenum steels which is based on the extraction of the orange-red molybdenum-thiocyanate complex into chloroform from hydrochloric acid medium.

The complex has an absorption maximum at 472 nm with a molar absorptivity of 1.9 × 104 liters mol−1 cm−1. Beer's law is valid over the concentration range 0.1–9.5 ppm of molybdenum with an optimum concentration range of 0.4–9 ppm.

The equilibrium shift method indicates 1:4:2 composition for molybdenumthiocyanate-acetonethiosemicarbazone complex. The effect of acidity, reagent concentrations, temperature, and interferences from various ions are reported.
