Sodium molybdate (Na₂MoO₂) is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the molybdate family, characterized by molybdenum oxide bonded with sodium cations. While primarily known as a soluble chemical reagent and corrosion inhibitor in industrial applications, this compound is also investigated in materials research for catalytic and electrochemical applications due to molybdenum's redox activity. It is most notable in water treatment, metal surface protection, and emerging energy storage systems where molybdate-based ceramics show promise as cost-effective alternatives to precious-metal catalysts.
