FAQs
1. What is the chemical formula of cupric carbonate LR?
Cupric carbonate LR has the chemical formula CuCO3, though it often exists as a basic carbonate with the formula Cu2(OH)2CO3 in its natural or synthesized form.
2. Is this cupric carbonate suitable for preparing copper-based catalysts?
Yes, the LR grade ensures high purity, making it appropriate for catalyst preparation where copper is a key active component.
3. How should cupric carbonate LR be stored to maintain its stability?
Store in a cool, dry place in a tightly sealed container to prevent exposure to moisture and atmospheric CO2, which can alter its composition.
4. Can this product be used as a pigment in ceramic glazes?
While primarily a lab reagent, its high copper content and stability at high temperatures make it suitable for ceramic applications requiring blue-green hues.
5. What alternatives exist if cupric carbonate LR is unavailable?
Copper(II) sulfate or copper(II) acetate can serve as alternatives in some reactions, though adjustments to stoichiometry may be required due to differing copper content.
