Abstract

Multiple phases of molybdenum carbide have been synthesized using a unique amine–metal oxide composite material. By combining molybdenum oxide and an amine, a templated precursor is formed which can be thermally decomposed to form molybdenum carbide with control over the structure and morphology of the nano-sized products.
