Conclusions
A study was made of the phsicochemical properties, compressibility, and sinterability of a molybdenum powder produced by the catalytic reduction of molybdenum trioxide. It is shown that such a powder possesses a well-developed surface (a specific surface of 4 m2/g) and exhibits high activity during sintering. In the study, compacts of 94% relative density (at a starting density of 48%) were obtained as a result of sintering for 1 h at 1400°C in hydrogen.
