Ammonium Molybdate is mainly used for smelting ferromolybdenum and preparing molybdenum trioxide, metal molybdenum powder and as raw material for tungsten-molybdenum alloy and molybdenum wire.
Ammonium Molybdate is widely used as the basic raw material for the production of high-purity molybdenum products, molybdenum catalysts, and molybdenum pigments. Ammonium Molybdate is also used for geological exploration of phosphate rock and as a catalyst for chemical industry. A small amount of ammonium molybdate is used as agricultural molybdenum fertilizer, which can be used as base fertilizer, seed fertilizer or top dressing in vegetables, cash crops, field crops, fruit trees, garden flowers, and grasslands.
Ammonium Molybdate is mainly classified into Ammonium Tetramolybdate, Ammonium Dimolybdate and Ammonium Heptamolybdate.
Ammonium Molybdate is divided into four specifications according to different purposes, MSA-0, MSA-1, MSA-2 and MSA-3.

On January 30, 2023, molybdenum price rose by more than 20% in a single day, breaking a new 17-year high. Molybdenum is known as the "war metal", "steel warrior". Molybdenum is valued by more and more countries. China is the world's richest country in molybdenum resources, with reserves of 4.3 million tons, followed by the United States (2.7 million tons) and Chile (1.8 million tons), which acco...more
