Abstract

This invention relates to a process for the production of a solid solution of compounds consisting of, in combination, at least 10 mol %, based on all metallic components, of molybdenum, at least one metallic element selected from the Group IVa, Va and VIa elements of the Periodic Table and at least one of non-metallic elements, which comprises mixing the metallic elements in the form of compounds or solutions thereof, adding carbon, optionally with at least one of non-metallic elements to the mixture, subjecting the resulting mixture to a reducing reaction with carbon and then subjecting to a solid solution-forming treatment in a reducing, carburizing or nitriding atmosphere.
