How to produce cadmium sulfide CDS powder?

 Cadmium sulfide can be prepared by precipitation from soluble cadmium (II) salts and sulfide ions. This reaction has been used for gravimetric analysis and qualitative inorganic analysis. 

Industrial cadmium mines are immersed in cadmium sulfate with sulfuric acid, adjusted to pH=3.5, and then precipitated with sodium sulfide, the pH value should not be too low.

The production of pigments usually includes the precipitation of CDS, washing of solid precipitates to remove soluble cadmium salts, then calcination (roasting) to convert them into hexagons, and then grinding to produce powder. When cadmium selenide sulfide is required, CdSe and CDS will co-precipitate, and cadmium selenide will be produced during the calcination step.

Cadmium sulfide is an inorganic substance with a chemical formula of CDS. It can be used to make fireworks, glass glazes, enamels, luminescent materials, and pigments. High-purity cadmium sulfide is a good semiconductor, has a strong photoelectric effect on visible light, and can be used to make photoelectric tubes and solar cells. It is prepared by passing hydrogen sulfide into the acid solution of cadmium salt.

Overview of cadmium sulfide CDS powder

How to produce cadmium sulfide CDS powder?

Cadmium sulfide is an inorganic substance with a chemical formula of CDS. There are two kinds of crystals, α type is lemon yellow powder, β type is orange-red powder. Slightly soluble in water, soluble in acid, slightly soluble in ammonia. Cadmium sulfide is a yellow solid. It has two different crystal structures in nature, namely, the rare minerals clinopyroxene and leucite, but in zinc ores with similar structures, sphalerite and wurtzite are usually used as impurity substituents, while zinc sphalerite Ore and wurtzite are the main economic sources of cadmium. As a compound that is easy to separate and purify, it is the main source of cadmium in all commercial applications. Its bright yellow color made it the pigment of the 18th century yellow paint "Cadmium Yellow".

Like zinc sulfide, cadmium sulfide has two crystal forms. More stable hexagonal wurtzite structure (found in greenstone mine) and cubic zinc mixed structure (found in Hollyite mine). In both forms, cadmium and sulfur atoms have four coordinates. There is also a high-pressure form with a NaCl rock salt structure.

Cadmium sulfide is a direct band gap semiconductor (energy gap 2.42 eV). Its band gap is close to the wavelength of visible light, giving it a colorful appearance.

Both polymorphs are piezoelectric, and the hexagon is also pyroelectric.

Cadmium sulfide crystals can be used as gain media for solid-state lasers.

For certain types of solar cells, cadmium sulfide can be used in combination with other layers in the form of thin films. Cadmium sulfide is also one of the first semiconductor materials used in thin film transistors (TFT).

The cadmium sulfide film can be a piezoelectric film and has been used as a transducer that can operate at frequencies in the GHz range.

Application of cadmium sulfide CDS powder

Cadmium sulfide CDS powder is called cadmium yellow and is used for the coloring of enamel, glass, ceramics, plastics and paint.

1. Cadmium yellow is widely used for the coloring of enamel, glass, ceramics, plastics and paint.

2. Used in paint and plastic industry, also used as electronic fluorescent material.

3. Cadmium yellow is suitable for coloring almost all resins, and is translucent in plastics.

4. As an excellent photographic developer, CDS nanoparticles can be used to detect cancer and other diseases and treat cancer cells.

5. CDS nanoparticles can be used to study the antibacterial and antifungal biological activities of various food-borne bacteria and fungi.

Cadmium yellow is widely used for the coloring of enamel, glass and ceramics. It is also used in coatings and plastics industries, as well as electronic fluorescent materials. Cadmium yellow is suitable for coloring almost all resins, and it is translucent in plastics. The light-colored cadmium yellow containing zinc sulfide is used in polyethylene, and the molding and processing time should be shortened as much as possible, because zinc sulfide will promote the decomposition of polyethylene plastic and make it green. Cadmium yellow is not as stable as cadmium red in the room, and it is mostly used in indoor plastic products. Cadmium yellow should not be combined with pigments containing copper or copper salts, so as to avoid the formation of black copper sulfide or green copper sulfate. Cadmium yellow and blue pigments can be mixed together to get green.

Cadmium sulfide is mainly used as a pigment because it has good thermal stability, light resistance, weather resistance, chemical resistance and high opacity. CDS Cadmium sulfide is used to make photoresistors, solar cells, photocatalysts, etc. The light-colored cadmium yellow containing zinc sulfide is used for polyethylene. Due to the presence of zinc sulfide, the molding processing time should be shortened as much as possible.

Lithium nitride is the only stable alkali metal nitride

圖片
  Overview of Lithium Nitride  Li3N  Powder Lithium nitride is a metallic nitrogen compound with the molecular formula Li3N. It is the only stable alkali metal nitride. It is a purple or red crystalline solid, with a high melting point and a light green luster in reflected light and ruby color in transmitted light. Exposure to the air over a long period of time will eventually result in lithium carbonate. The chemistry of basic metal nitrides is extremely limited, and only lithium nitride is stable and easily prepared among binary compounds (sodium nitrite and potassium nitrite are prepared only under more extreme conditions). Lithium nitride belongs to the hexagonal crystal system. There are lithium and nitrogen layers composed of lithium and nitrogen atoms in lithium nitride crystal. The lithium atoms are arranged like carbon atoms in a graphite crystal, with nitrogen atoms at the center of a hexagon of lithium atoms. There is a lithium layer between the lithium and ni...

Cuprous oxide is also known as an inorganic compound of copper oxide

圖片
  Overview of Cuprous oxide  Cu2O  Powder Cuprous oxide,   the chemical formula is Cu2O, is monovalent copper oxide, a bright red powder solid, almost insoluble in water, in acidic solution disproportionation into copper and copper elemental, in the wet air gradually oxidized into black copper oxide. Cuprous oxide is mainly used in the manufacture of ship bottom antifouling paint(used to kill lower Marine animals), insecticides, and various copper salts, analytical reagents, red glass, but also used in the preparation of copper plating and copper plating alloy solution. Copper(I)oxide is also known as an inorganic compound of copper oxide with the chemical formula Cu2O. It's essentially covalent. The copper(I)oxide crystallizes in a cubic structure. When heated, hydrogen tends to reduce the disproportionation it undergoes in acidic solutions that produce copper (II) ions and copper. When the copper oxide is gently heated with metal copper, it is converted to cuprous ...
