The electrochemical behavior of oxidic molybdenum in tungstate melt was studied under equilibrium and nonequilibrium conditions. Chronovoltammetry and transient polarization was used. The current-voltage curves were recorded with a pulse potentiostat and the experiments were performed in a quartz reactor with platinum and molybdenum electrodes and a platinum crucible served as the melt container and anode. The end product of the oxidic molybdenum forms were shown to depend on the acid-base properties of the melt which allows for choosing the properties and controlling the electrode process.
