Sodium Molybdate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Molybdenum Sodium Salt
- Sodium Molybdenate
- Na2MoO4
- Natrium Molybdate
Sodium molybdate supplier for water-treatment, agriculture and chemical manufacturing buyers in Malaysia. Also known as molybdenum sodium salt, sodium molybdenate, molybdenate and Na2MoO4, this white crystalline salt is a soluble source of molybdate ion for corrosion-inhibitor programmes, micronutrient blends and industrial manufacture.
Commercial grades are mainly sodium molybdate dihydrate and anhydrous sodium molybdate. Dihydrate is the usual form for closed-loop cooling-water corrosion inhibition and many fertiliser applications, while anhydrous material is chosen when the process or assay basis requires the water-free salt. Technical grades serve pigment and chemical manufacture where a general industrial specification is acceptable.
Water treaters use sodium molybdate as a non-chromate inhibitor for mild steel in closed and chilled water circuits. Agriculture uses it as the molybdenum micronutrient in fertiliser blends, and manufacturers use it in pigments and related chemical processes. Match the hydration form and assay to the dose calculation rather than selecting by appearance alone.
Send the required dihydrate or anhydrous form, grade, assay or molybdenum-content basis, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Sodium Molybdate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sodium molybdate dihydrate | white crystalline powder or crystals | typically 98% minimum or as specified | Molybdate source for closed-loop cooling-water corrosion inhibition and other water-treatment programmes that specify the dihydrate. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Sodium molybdate anhydrous | white crystalline powder | typically 99% minimum or as specified | Processes and formulations that require anhydrous sodium molybdate rather than the dihydrate, including selected chemical manufacture. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Technical grade sodium molybdate | white crystalline powder or crystals | — | Pigment manufacture, chemical intermediates and general industrial use where a technical molybdate grade meets the buyer specification. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Common questions about sodium molybdate
What is the difference between sodium molybdate dihydrate and anhydrous?
Dihydrate contains water of crystallisation and is the common commercial form for many water-treatment and micronutrient uses. Anhydrous sodium molybdate has no water of crystallisation and is selected when the process or specification requires the anhydrous salt. Do not substitute on an equal-weight basis without checking the formulation calculation.
Is sodium molybdate used as a corrosion inhibitor?
Yes. Sodium molybdate is widely used as a non-chromate molybdate source to protect mild steel in closed-loop cooling water and other treated water systems. State the system type, target residual and dose basis with the enquiry so the grade can be matched.
Can sodium molybdate be used as a molybdenum micronutrient?
Yes. Agriculture and fertiliser blenders use sodium molybdate as a soluble molybdenum source in nutrient blends and related formulations. Provide the intended application, grade and any assay or impurity limits with the enquiry.
Are sodium molybdate, sodium molybdenate and molybdenum sodium salt the same?
Yes. Sodium molybdenate, molybdenum sodium salt, molybdenate and Na2MoO4 are alternate names for sodium molybdate. Still state dihydrate or anhydrous form, grade and assay in the enquiry because those details affect supply and dosing.
What specifications should a buyer provide for sodium molybdate?
State hydration form, grade, assay or molybdenum-content basis, appearance or particle preference, and any impurity limits required by the water programme, fertiliser blend or manufacturing process. An existing specification sheet helps match the quotation more closely.
What details are needed for a sodium molybdate price enquiry?
Provide the form or grade, application, target specification, quantity and delivery location. Mention any preferred pack format, documentation needs and required timing so the quotation can address the complete requirement.
