Abstract
Solid-phase interactions in Li2MoO4-K2MoO4-MMoO4 (M = Ca, Pb, Ba) systems were studied, and the subsolidus regions of these systems were triangulated. The lead and barium systems were studied in a more detailed way to discover that, along KLiMoO4-K2M(MoO4)2 (M = Pb, Ba), KLiMoO4-PbMoO4, and Li2MoO4-K2Ba(MoO4)2 quasi-binary sections, there are homogeneity regions reaching 6–11 mol % based on K2M(MoO4)2 and lead molybdate. Triple molybdates are formed in none of the systems, which is verified by experiments on spontaneous crystallization from solution in melt. Crystallization experiments yielded crystals of potassium dimolybdate and simple and double molybdates from the boundary systems. The crystal structure was solved for a hexagonal KLiMoO4 phase: (Na,K){ZnPO4}, a = 18.8838(7) A, c = 8.9911(6)A, Z = 24, space group P63, R = 0.065. The structure comprises a three-dimensional tridymite framework built by an alternation of corner-sharing LiO4- and MoO4 tetrahedra wherein voids are occupied by potassium cations.
