    Molybdenum is a crucial element of life. In humans, there are over 60 Molybdenum enzymes in the human body. Humans also have Tungsten substituted for Molybdenum in similar enzymes that work in concert together. In the sea, a vast number of organisms depend on one or both of these metals whereas a deficiency of either usually has lethal consequences for simple sea life.
    This has been a problem in the adaptation certain types of specialized sea bacteria into freshwater lakes in California as the sea contains massive amounts of trace minerals. In humans Molybdenum levels are highest in the liver, kidneys and adrenals. While a deficiency of molybdenum is rare in humans, excessive copper intake can cause it.

      That is true. Molybdenum is even supposed to be related to life formation, that may have begun on Mars (and then delivered to Earth via meteorites). This has to do with Mo-S clusters, but also Fe-S clusters. Similar clusters may have been derived from some Fe-S minerals, like greigite.

    Molybdate anion is a good test for dissolved silica in the form of metasilicate or silicic acid, and will detect a few parts per million of it. To a solution of silicate, add some ammonium molybdate solution followed by dilute acetic acid in excess. Over several minutes, a yellow colour will develop, which is a complex anion of silicon-molybdate or molybdo-silicate. The strength of the yellow colour can be measured with a spectrometer and it is a quantitative measure of silica if run with a standard. Now add some crystals of hydroquinone, and the solution turns a beautiful blue.

    Molybdenum Disulfide is my go-to lubricant for metal to metal contact applications, especially when high heat is involved. MD actually bonds to the metal and creates a nearly frictionless surface. I was having trouble with the sleeve bearings in the motors of the exhaust fans of my furnaces. I mixed some MD with some very light oil and let it wick into the bearings. They now run very smooth, very quiet and haven’t given me any problems for years. I have used it when assembling R/C aircraft engines and other high speed/high heat applications. It’s amazing stuff and I can’t say enough about it. It can be added to oil, grease or applied directly. You can even use a solvent, such as isopropyl alcohol, if you want it ‘carried’ into a close metal to metal application, and only leave the MD behind. It’s expensive in powder form, but just a little goes a very long way. (I have a one pound container, I’ve used it for over 25 years and I’m nowhere close to using it up.) It looks a lot like graphite, but has a much lower friction coefficient. Also, wear gloves while using it. The particle size is so small, that it will actually penetrate and bond to your skin, leaving stains that won’t readily wash off.
    I wish that I had a spare automotive engine to test it on. I would just add it to the oil and let it coat everything. My only concern, even though the particle size is very small, is that it might clog the oil filter. I suppose that I could let it run for a short while, change the oil filter and see how that works. It would be an interesting experiment to try. Does anybody live in northern Illinois USA, have a spare low-mileage engine and want to try this? We could take all sorts of measurements, treat the engine with MD and then repeat all of the measurements. It would make for a great video! We could even create an engine additive, give it a cool name like ‘Slick As Fuck’, sell it in stores and make a fortune. LOL :-)
