Mo foil

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

Mo foil is a thin sheet of molybdenum metal. Molybdenum is a refractory metal known for its high melting point and resistance to corrosion. The foil form provides a versatile material for various applications requiring a durable, high-temperature-resistant metal.

Mo foil (99.95%) was purchased from Alfa Aesar, manually thinned and cut into pieces of required dimensions using steel and tungsten micro-tools. MgO (100 μm, <100> plane orientation) and Al2O3 (100 μm, <0001> c-plane orientation) single-crystal plates were obtained from MTI Corporation. Rhenium DAC gaskets, as well as MgO and Al2O3 parts for the sample encapsulation assembly, were prepared using the laser micromachining system at HPCAT19 .

Three-layer, 25-μm-thick Cu foil (Alfa Aesar, 99.95% purity) was cut into pieces and placed on a 50-μm-thick Mo foil (Alfa Aesar, 99.95% purity). The Cu/Mo substrate was placed in a single-temperature-zone CVD system and heated to above 1096 °C under 200 sccm Ar (type I method, see below). The other Mo foil was placed near the Cu/Mo substrate (type II method). CH4 (5 sccm) and H2 (300 sccm) were introduced into the chamber to grow the Mo2C crystals. Finally, the tube furnace was naturally cooled to room temperature before collecting the Mo2C sample.

Laser-Fabricated Metal-Based Batteries

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
An ultraviolet laser prototyping system (LPKF U4) defined the shapes of the anodes and cathodes from foils of Mg (50 or 100 µm, Alibaba), Zn (10 or 20 µm, Alibaba), Mo (5 or 50 µm, Alibaba), and W (50 µm, Alibaba) and from foils of Fe (3 or 25 µm, Alfa Aesar). Mg-Fe, Mg-Mo, and Mg-W batteries incorporated anodes of Mg, cathodes of Fe, Mo, or W, and electrolytes of phosphate buffered solution (PBS, Sigma-Aldrich). Mg-MoO3 and Zn-MoO3 batteries combined anodes of Mg or Zn with MoO3 cathodes, respectively, in PBS electrolytes. Mixing 0.45 g MoO3 (Sigma Aldrich), 0.05 g carbon black, and 800 µL of 300 mg/mL poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA, lactide/glycolide 65:35, Mw 40 to 75k, Sigma-Aldrich) in ethyl acetate within a planetary mixer (Thinky ARE-30) yielded a slurry for the MoO3 cathode. Mo gauze (40 mesh, Alfa Aesar) and Mo foil (5 or 50 µm) served as current collectors for the cathode materials. Applying the slurries on these current collectors and baking at 65 °C for 30 min completed the process.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
