Phase diagram studies on ternary Bi–Mo–O system

The ternary Bi–Mo–O system was investigated by long term equilibration studies followed by XRD analysis of the equilibrium phases. Existence of ten ternary compounds and a high temperature solid solution in the system were confirmed. Combining the partial phase diagrams of the system reported earlier, isothermal sections of Bi–Mo–O system at 773, 873 and 1023 ​K have been constructed and reported.
