Mo₂O₃ is a mixed-valence molybdenum oxide ceramic compound that exists primarily as a research material rather than a widely commercialized engineering ceramic. It belongs to the molybdenum oxide family and has been investigated for applications requiring high-temperature stability, electrical conductivity, and catalytic properties. The material is notable in catalysis research, thin-film electronics, and high-temperature oxidation resistance applications, where its intermediate oxidation state offers advantages over fully reduced (MoO₂) or fully oxidized (MoO₃) alternatives.
