Is cuprous oxide dangerous?

 Overview of Cuprous Oxide Cu2O Powder

Cuprous oxide, the chemical formula is Cu2O, is a monovalent cupric oxide, bright red powder solid, almost insoluble in water, disproportionate into divalent copper and copper elements in an acidic solution, and gradually oxidized into black copper oxide in humid air.

 Cuprous oxide is commonly used as a pigment, biocide and antifouling agent in marine coatings. Rectifier diodes based on this material were used in industry as early as 1924, long before silicon became the standard. Copper(I) oxide is also responsible for the positive pink color of the Benedict test.

Ingestion Toxic if swallowed. Skin May be harmful if absorbed through skin. May cause skin irritation. Eyes May cause eye irritation.

Cuprous oxide Cu2O powder application

Antifouling paint for ships and bottoms; it is an effective corrosion control.

Glass and porcelain coatings.

Used as p-type semiconductor material, used in the manufacture of photometer cells and in the manufacture of rectifiers.

Used as a fungicide and seed dressing.

Cuprous oxide is often used as a catalyst for the production of other chemicals. Used in the manufacture of zinc chloride, ferrous chloride, etc. It is also used as a UV absorber in surface treatment products.

Cuprous oxide is one of the most common oxides in batteries, accounting for 9% to 15% of all batteries. It is also used in metal production, building and construction, and in the production of plastics and other organic compounds. It is an ingredient in some paints and is used as an oxidizer in many metal plating processes.

Used as ultra-high-purity reagents, catalysts and effective preservatives in industry and construction. It is particularly suitable for manufacturing and process control, as well as the construction industry. It is also used in water treatment, especially to purify water to remove dissolved particles and for the polymerization of certain polymers.

The process is used as a catalyst in metallurgy and is important for steel production. The catalyst acts as a reducing agent in the oxidation of iron.

Used as a pigment and flame retardant, as a flux in metal smelting.

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...

Is zinc sulfide fluorescent or phosphorescent?

圖片
  Overview of Zinc Sulfide ZnS Zinc sulfide  is a white to off-white or light yellow powder, which becomes darker when exposed to light, stable in dry air, and gradually oxidized to zinc sulfate when stored for a long time in humid air or containing water. Soluble in dilute inorganic acid, soluble in alkali, insoluble in water. Relative density 3.98 (alpha type), (d25) 4.102 (beta type). irritating. Is zinc sulfide fluorescent or phosphorescent? Zinc sulfide  is one of the most common phosphorescent materials. Phosphorescence is a special type of photoluminescence. Unlike fluorescent substances, phosphorescent materials emit absorbed energy immediately. What are the properties of zinc sulfide? Zinc sulfide  is white or slightly yellow powder. Turns into crystals when burned in H2S gas. Its α variant is a colorless hexagonal crystal with a density of 3.98g/cm3 and a melting point of 1700°C. Its beta variant is a colorless cubic crystal with a density of 4.102 g/cm3, w...

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

  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 ...
