Synthesis of the Molybdenum Precursor for Slurry-Phase Hydrocracking of Heavy Oil.

In this study, Molybdenum precursors were synthesized with butanoic acid, hexanoic acid, nonanoic acid, decanoic acid, and undecanoic acid. In order to determine chemical structure of Synthesized molybdenum precursors, 1H(13C)-NMR, EA and ICP were used pyrolysis properties were measured TGA. The molybdenum precursors was used for Hydrocracking of Vacuum R1esidue (VR).
