Chemical properties:
Lead gray to black solid powder, contact with a creamy, odorless, belongs to the hexagonal or orthorhombic system, similar to graphite, metallic luster.

Usage:
For the preparation of molybdenum compounds, but also for hydrogenation catalyst
For drilling, cutting tools and other non-oil lubrication, carbide and other lubricants
For metal cutting machining cooling lubricants
For lubricating oil additives, non-ferrous metal release agent

Brief manufacture process:
Preparation of molybdenum disulfide process can be divided into two kinds: natural and synthetic methods. Natural method is to high-quality molybdenum concentrate further purification, leaching agent leaching molybdenum concentrates of metal and non-metallic impurities. Preparation of molybdenum disulfide synthesis, the ammonium molybdate as raw materials, first sulfide to ammonium thiomolybdate, and then acidification of molybdenum trisulfide, and then pyrolysis was molybdenum disulfide.
