Language pair? Are you sure this isn't meant to be FR > EN?

The use of 'silicium' in EN is so unusual, I can't help wondering if this source text isn't actually already in FR, and maybe you need the EN?

molybdate-active silicon

I'm assuming the language pair was the wrong way round, in which case I'd expect it to be this; there are quite a lot of refs. on Google that talk about 'molybdate-active' and 'molybdate-inactive' compounds, so I think it may need to be interpreted along those lines.

- selon le contexte, et ici on parle d'analyses, il pourrait s'agir de :
réactif pour le dosage de la silice (tests photométriques / colorimétrie des silicomolybdates)
Example sentence:

Les méthodes colorimétriques sont fortement perturbées par la formation d'un complexe phospho-molybdique qui possède des bandes spectrales d'absorption recouvrant celles des silicomolybdates.
