Ammonium heptamolybdate

Ammonium heptamolybdate (CAS 12027-67-7), abbreviated AHM, is an inorganic molybdenum salt; a primary source of soluble molybdenum for industrial and agricultural processes.

Where is Ammonium heptamolybdate used?

• Agriculture: molybdenum-based micronutrient fertilizers and foliar sprays for leguminous crops where soil deficiency limits nitrogen fixation
• Catalysts: precursor for hydrodesulfurization and selective oxidation catalysts in petroleum refining
• Water treatment and industrial cooling: corrosion inhibitor forming a protective oxide layer on metal surfaces
• Mining and metal processing: analytical reagent for phosphate and silicate determination in ore and process water testing
• It serves as a catalyst precursor, corrosion inhibitor, and micronutrient source depending on the sector.

Commercial specifications

• Purity typically 99% and upward
• Bulk packaging for agricultural and industrial grades
• Specifications aligned to customer process requirements and industrial standards
