The quasi-binary phase diagram lithium oxide – molybdenum(VI) oxide was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. The four intermediate phases Li₄MoO₅, Li₂MoO₄, Li₄Mo₅O₁₇, and Li₂Mo₄O₁₃ show incongruent melting. The system has one eutectic point at 50.5 mol% MoO₃ and 49.5 mol% LiO_0.5 with a eutectic temperature of 524.6°C. At this point the melt is in equilibrium with Li₂MoO₄ and Li₄Mo₅O₁₇.
