| Abstract: | The present paper deals with differential thermal analysis studies conducted to find out the onset temperature for silicothermic reduction of MoO2 to Mo. The reaction kinetics of Si–MoO2 system has been analyzed by a model-free Kissinger method. X-ray diffraction analysis has confirmed the formation of Mo metal and SiO2 as the slag phase after silicothermic reduction of MoO2. The activation energy for silicothermic reduction of MoO2 to Mo was evaluated to be 309 kJ mol?1. |
