Mo-U (Molybdenum-Uranium)

H. Okamoto

Abstract

The Mo-U phase diagram in [Massalski2] was redrawn from [1980Bre] with additional controversial information from [1989Lun] that MoU2 may be stable up to at least 1252 C. This problem has not been solved since then. Figure 1 shows the Mo-U phase diagram calculated by [2011Ber]. The question of high-temperature stability of MoU2 was not taken into account. Therefore, experimental work is needed to verify this phase diagram. Table 1 shows Mo-U crystal structure data. References
