Abstract: The nuclear ctuadrupole interaction of 99Mo(β-)99Tc in calcined MoO3/Y-A1203 mixtures was measured by time differential perturbed angular correlation (TDPAC) and used for studying the surface conversion of MoO3 on γ-Al2O3 during thermal treatment. MoO3 on γ-Al203 surface can be conveted to Mo7O246- (HM)-like Mo species, which can be further converted to the precursor of the active HDS sites (surface polymolybdate species) via the intermediate MoO2(OH)2 formed at high temperature. Water vapour with the suitable amount, the time period and temperature of thermal treatment increasing are in favour of the transfor-mation of MoO3. The presence of excess water vapour inhibits the transformation and with-out water vapour, MoO3 is difficult to be converted.
