{"product_id":"cadmium-oxide-powder","title":"Cadmium Oxide Powder Technical","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCadmium Oxide Powder Technical (CAS 1306-19-0) is a high-density inorganic compound with the chemical formula CdO and a molecular weight of 128.41. It presents as a solid brown amorphous powder or brown crystals depending on its preparation. It exhibits a density of 6.95 for the amorphous form and 8.15 for the crystalline structure. This versatile metal oxide is widely utilized in industrial chemistry, primarily serving as an essential precursor for electroplating baths and the manufacturing of high-reliability cadmium electrodes. As an important constituent in \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/inorganic-compounds\"\u003einorganic compounds\u003c\/a\u003e chemistry, it also plays a key role in formulation of specialized silver alloys, phosphors, semiconductor components, and durable glass or ceramic glazes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlliance Chemical distributes this technical-grade powder to meet the demands of commercial manufacturing. Our material is strictly controlled to ensure consistency in its key physical properties, including its sublimation point of 2838 °F at 760 mmHg and its minimal solubility of less than 1 mg\/mL at 68 °F. We offer comprehensive support to assist facilities in safely implementing this compound into their operational processes. Whether you are running a metal finishing operation or producing advanced electronics, this powder offers the reliable quality necessary to maintain process stability and prevent costly batch failures. Safety Data Sheet (SDS) provided with every order and Certificate of Analysis (COA) available upon request.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Grade\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelecting the technical grade of Cadmium Oxide is vital for maintaining appropriate process chemistry while balancing operational costs. The technical grade offers the optimal balance of purity and concentration for bulk commercial manufacturing, where high-end laboratory reagents would be economically prohibitive, yet low-grade alternatives would introduce unacceptable contaminants. For applications in electroplating and metallurgy, this specific grade ensures reliable reactivity and uniform deposition across target substrates without unexpected side-reactions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUtilizing an unverified grade or an inconsistent chemical source can lead to critical failure modes in your production line. In semiconductor and phosphor manufacturing, minor trace impurities can alter electrical conductivity, degrade luminescent qualities, or impair the efficiency of \u003ca href=\"\/products\/cadmium-oxide-powder\"\u003ecadmium electrodes\u003c\/a\u003e. In glazing applications, uncontrolled impurities can lead to discoloration or structural weaknesses in the finished glass. Alliance Chemical mitigates these risks by providing a uniform Technical Grade material that guarantees structural and chemical consistency from batch to batch, eliminating variables that could jeopardize your production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"chemical-profile\" data-source=\"canonical\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChemical Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCAS Number\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1306-19-0\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eChemical Formula\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eCdO\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMolecular Weight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e128.41 g\/mol\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBoiling Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e2838 °F at 760 mmHg (sublimes) (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMelting Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eGreater than 2732 °F (EPA, 1998)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eSpecific Gravity\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e8.15 crystalline form; 6.95 amorphous form (EPA, 1998)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAppearance\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eCadmium oxide appears as brown crystals or brown amorphous powder.
