As a typical product made from the refractory metal molybdenum (Mo), molybdenum bar is a rod - shaped item with molybdenum as its primary raw material. Therefore, it is often referred to as a molybdenum rod or molybdenum stick. In English, it is known as "molybdenum bar" or "molybdenum rod." With a purity of up to 99.7%, it is widely used in metallurgy, power equipment, and other fields due to its excellent thermal, mechanical, chemical, and electrical properties.

Ammonium metatungstate (AMT) is a significant tungstate compound, typically represented by the chemical formula (NH₄)₆H₂W₁₂O₄₀·nH₂O (where n is the number of water molecules of crystallization, commonly 1 or 2). Structurally, it belongs to the polyoxometalate family known as "tungsten clusters." Its core structure consists of 12 tungsten-oxygen octahedra connected through shared oxygen atoms, forming a cyclic or cage-like framework, with ammonium ions and protonated water molecules filling the gaps.
