How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Electrochemical dissolution of molybdenum and tungsten was investigated in water- dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) media at different concentrations of lithium chloride and magnesium perchlorate. The terms of efficient extraction of molybdenum from bimetallic systems of Mo-W have been determined. The polarization curves of the electrooxidation of molybdenum in the solution of 0.25 M LiCl in the DMSO at the different rates of rotations and the scan rate equal to 50 mV/s were obtained. In the presence of the addition of water at the potential of 0.1-0.75 V the small area of polarizability occurs, then with increasing potentials above 1.5 V there is a sharp increase of the oxidation current. Comparison of the current values of anodic dissolution of molybdenum and tungsten showed that the rate of anodic dissolution of molybdenum significantly exceeds the rate of anodic dissolution of tungsten. In the case of molybdenum, the dissolution process is limited by diffusion, in the case of tungsten - by the passive film formation on the electrode surface.
