Reaction mechanism between MoO 2 powder and NH 3 in the temperature range of 1028‐1273 K has been investigated. The results show that reduction products are strongly dependent on the reaction temperature employed. It is found that molybdenum nitride (Mo 2 N) can be successfully synthesized when the temperature is below 1078 K, with the morphologies keep the same as that of the raw material MoO 2 . Although the temperature is above 1078 K, metal Mo powder will be turned up; at the even higher temperatures, the thermodynamically stable phase will be metal Mo. In addition, MoO x N 1− x as an intermediate product is formed during the reduction processes.
