Abstract
The synthesis and characterization (by CHN elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, XRD diffractometry, thermogravimetry and SEM microscopy) of MoO3 intercalation compounds with pyridazine (pdz), acrylamid (ald) and tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (tham) is reported. Such investigation was performed taking into account the possible uses of molybdenum trioxide as a molecular sieve towards nitrogen containing compounds. It is verified that the affinity of MoO3 towards the investigated species follows the sequence: ald congruent to > pdz.
