Electronic Grade Barium Carbonate

Description

Electronic grade barium carbonate is a high purity barium carbonate, mainly used in the electronics industry. It has the following basic properties:

Chemical formula: BaCO3
Physical state: white crystalline powder
Density: relatively high
Melting point: has a relatively high melting point
Toxicity: although it is use in some applications, its toxicity needs to be note, especially when it comes into contact with stomach acid, it will be convert into toxic barium chloride

Uses of Barium Carbonate:
Electronic-grade barium carbonate has a variety of uses in the electronics industry, mainly including:

Electronic devices: manufacturing capacitors, TV picture tubes, optoelectronic materials, etc.

Glass and ceramics: improving the hardness and transparency of glass and ceramics, and enhancing the gloss of products

Chemical industry: as a raw material for the preparation of other barium compounds, such as barium acid, barium sulfate and barium salts, which are important in the fields of catalysts, flame retardants, electronic materials and medicine

Water treatment: use to purify hardness ions and heavy metal ions in water sources, and then as a precipitant in wastewater treatment

Function:
Among the above uses, the role of electronic-grade barium carbonate is mainly reflect in the following aspects:

Improving product quality: In the manufacture of glass and ceramics, adding barium carbonate can improve the hardness, transparency and gloss of the product.

Enhanced functional properties: In the manufacture of electronic devices, barium carbonate is a key raw material that helps improve the performance and stability of products.

Catalytic effect: In fertilizer production, barium carbonate can be used as a catalyst to increase reaction speed and efficiency.
Purification effect: In the field of water treatment, barium carbonate can be use as a precipitant to help remove harmful ions in water.

In summary, electronic grade barium carbonate plays an important role in the electronics industry and many other fields. Its high purity and specific properties make it one of the indispensable raw materials. However, due to its toxicity, special care should be taken when using it to ensure that safety precautions are in place.
