Preparation

edit

Samarium(III) molybdate can be obtained by reacting samarium(III) nitrate and sodium molybdate in the pH range of 5.5~6.0.[2] Its single crystal can be grown at 1085 °C by the Czochralski method.[3]

Samarium(III) molybdate can also be prepared by reacting samarium and molybdenum(VI) oxide:

 

Properties

edit

Samarium(III) molybdate forms violet crystals of several modifications:

Samarium(III) molybdate exhibits ferroelectric properties.[6] It forms a crystalline hydrate with the composition Sm2(MoO4)3•2H2O.

Samarium(III) molybdate can be reduced to the tetravalent molybdenum compound Sm2Mo3O9 by hydrogen at 500~650 °C.[7]
