Overview of Copper Oxide
Copper Oxide is an inorganic copper compound widely used in chemical manufacturing, catalysts, pigments, ceramics, and industrial applications. It is available as black (CuO) or red (Cu2O) powders, known for their high stability, conductivity, and catalytic properties.
In industrial applications, Copper Oxide is valued for its consistent copper content, chemical reactivity, and versatility. It is frequently used in systems where other copper compounds such as Copper Chloride, Copper Sulphate, Copper Carbonate, and Copper Nitrate are also applied.
