Barium Carbonate Loba

About Barium Carbonate Loba

Barium carbonate is a white, inorganic compound with the chemical formula BaCO: 

• PropertiesBarium carbonate is insoluble in water but soluble in most acids, except sulfuric acid. It has a specific gravity of 4.275 and is toxic if ingested. 
• UsesBarium carbonate is used in many industrial applications, including:
  • Ceramics: Used in glazes and as a fluxing agent 
  • Electronics: Used in the manufacture of electronic ceramics, capacitors, PTC thermistors, and other electronic components 
  • Environmental science: Used to determine the extent of contamination in soil or water 
• OccurrenceBarium carbonate occurs as the mineral witherite. It can also be prepared from barytes through precipitation. 
• HandlingBarium carbonate should be kept under low quality below 20% and protective measures should be taken while handling it. 

 

Consistent Quality for Laboratory Use

Barium Carbonate Loba is crafted to meet strict industrial grade requirements, making it ideal for laboratory applications that demand high purity and stability. Its uniform fine powder form ensures ease of measurement and dissolution in compatible processes. The product's consistent performance helps laboratories achieve repeatable experimental outcomes.


Unmatched Shelf Life and Colour Stability

With a shelf life of 12 months, Barium Carbonate Loba maintains its structural integrity and reactivity. The compound's high colour stability means it resists degradation or discoloration, even under extended storage, making it reliable for long-term projects and applications.


Safe Handling and Storage

Despite its essential roles, Barium Carbonate Loba is toxic if swallowed. Handling guidelines recommend using appropriate personal protective equipment and storing the compound in well-labelled containers, away from food and inaccessible to unauthorized personnel. Safety ensures its benefits are fully realized without compromising health.
