Description and Uses
Sodium molybdate (Na2MO4) may be used as an electrolyte additive, for use in electrochemical capacitors. Addition of Na2MO4 as an electrolyte additive may result in enhanced capacitance, corrosion prevention and stabilized performance.
It may also be used as a catalyst during the manufacture of paints and dyes.
