Product Description

Product Description

Basic Information

• Chemical Name: Cupric Oxychloride
• Molecular Formula:
  • Main forms: Cu2(OH)3Cl or CuCl2.3Cu(OH)2 (basic copper chloride)
  • Hydrated form: Cu2(OH)3Cl.xH2O
• CAS Number: 1332-40-7 (mixture of copper hydroxides and chlorides)
• Synonyms: Basic Copper Chloride, Copper Oxychloride

Chemical & Physical Properties
Structure & Appearance

• Structure: Ionic compound composed of copper(II) ions (Cu2), hydroxide (OH), and chloride (Cl−) ions.
• Color & Form:
  • Light green to dark green crystalline powder (anhydrous); may appear bluish-green in hydrated forms.
• Solubility:
  • Insoluble in water and organic solvents; slightly soluble in dilute acids (releases Cu2+ ions).
• Stability:
  • Stable under normal conditions; decomposes into copper oxide (CuO), water, and hydrogen chloride (HCl) when heated above 200°C.

Applications
1. Agriculture (Pesticide & Fertilizer)

• Fungicide:
  • Controls fungal diseases (e.g., leaf spot, blight) in crops like citrus, grapes, and potatoes.
  • Mode of action: Releases Cu2+ ions, which disrupt fungal cell membranes and enzyme activity.
• Micro-nutrient Fertilizer:
  • Supplies copper to plants, preventing deficiency (e.g., wilting, stunted growth).

2. Industrial Uses

• Catalyst:
  • In organic synthesis (e.g., oxidation reactions) and polymer production.
• Pigment:
  • Green pigment for ceramics, paints, and glass due to its stability and colorfastness.
• Electroplating:
  • As an additive in electroplating baths to improve copper deposition uniformity.

3. Others

• Wood Preservative: Inhibits microbial decay in treated wood.
• Chemical Reagent: For preparing other copper compounds (e.g., copper sulfide, copper acetate).

Safety & Handling
Hazards

• Toxicity:
  • Inhalation: May irritate respiratory tract; prolonged exposure risks copper pneumoconiosis.
  • Ingestion: Causes gastrointestinal irritation; high doses are toxic to liver and kidneys.
• Environmental Impact:
  • Toxic to aquatic life; avoid release into water bodies.

Safety Measures

• Personal Protection: Wear gloves, goggles, and a dust mask when handling.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, sealed in airtight containers, away from acids and reducing agents.
• Spill Response: Collect powder with a vacuum or brush, and dispose of according to hazardous waste regulations.
