Molybdenum Octoate
Molybdenum Octoate
Molybdenum Octoate is an organometallic molybdenum compound supplied primarily as a liquid solution and used as a source of molybdenum in industrial and specialty chemical applications. It is commonly available in grades specified by molybdenum content, with 15% molybdenum being a commercially available specification. Molybdenum Octoate is used in coatings, catalysts, chemical formulations, and other applications where a soluble molybdenum compound is required. (mubychem.com)

*Molybdenum Octoate can be represented in different ways because commercial material may consist of molybdenum carboxylate species rather than a single discrete molecular species. Commercial reference data for CAS 34041-09-3 lists C₃₂H₆₀MoO₈ and a molecular weight of 668.75 g/mol, while American Elements describes the material using a variable-composition formula.

Storage & Safety Information
Storage: Store Molybdenum Octoate in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from heat, ignition sources, and incompatible materials. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use. Follow the storage conditions specified in the applicable Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
Safety: Molybdenum Octoate should be handled using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including protective gloves, safety goggles, and suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes and avoid breathing vapors or aerosols generated during handling.
Certain commercial Molybdenum Octoate formulations are classified as suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child (H361). The exact hazard classification can vary according to formulation and concentration, so the SDS for the specific grade supplied should always be followed. (mubychem.com)
