Introduction to Molybdenum Silicide MoSi2 Pulp Molybdenum silicide In 1906, it was discovered. In different circumstances, silicon and molybdenum may form molybdenum trisilicide, molybdenum pentasilicate, and molybdenum silicate (Mo3Si3). Molybdenum trisilicide (MoSi2) – a Dalton type intermetallic compound – is the most important. Its crystal structure shows that the atomic combination of metal and covalent…
