An etchant capable of revealing the sites of dislocations in the flux‐grown crystals of BaMoO 4 has been established. Using this etchant (HNO 3 ), effect of etching time, acid concentration and temperature on the selective etch rate is demonstrated. It is established that the process of dissolution in unstirred HNO 2 solutions is one of the diffusion rate controlled; an empirical equation governing the kinetics has been suggested.
