Dicopper carbonate dihydroxide exhibits amphoteric behavior, reacting with acids to form soluble copper salts and with strong bases to produce cuprite (Cu₂O). It serves as a flotation agent in copper ore concentration, selectively binding to sulfide minerals. In catalysis, it facilitates alcohol oxidation reactions under mild conditions.
1.Product Introduction
Dicopper carbonate dihydroxide exhibits amphoteric behavior, reacting with acids to form soluble copper salts and with strong bases to produce cuprite (Cu₂O). It serves as a flotation agent in copper ore concentration, selectively binding to sulfide minerals. In catalysis, it facilitates alcohol oxidation reactions under mild conditions. Its low solubility product (Ksp ≈ 1.4 × 10⁻¹⁰) enables controlled ion release in environmental remediation of copper-contaminated soils. Naturally forming as a corrosion layer on bronze artifacts, it provides historical insights into ancient metallurgical processes while acting as a precursor for advanced copper-based nanomaterials.

3.Product Feature And Application
Dicopper carbonate dihydroxide serves as a micronutrient source in animal feed, supplementing copper for enzyme functions in livestock. In art conservation, it stabilizes bronze artifacts by mimicking natural patina formation, preventing further corrosion. The compound acts as a green pigment in ceramic glazes and glass coloring, providing stable hues at high temperatures. Additionally, it functions as a stabilizing agent in reactive ceramic mixtures, controlling crystallization during firing. Its controlled reactivity also enables use in specialty cements for underwater applications, where gradual decomposition enhances structural integrity in marine environments.
4.Product Details
Dicopper carbonate dihydroxide forms via precipitation reaction between copper sulfate and sodium carbonate. It decomposes stepwise upon heating: first losing water (~200°C), then CO₂ (~300°C), yielding CuO. The process is exothermic. Its layered crystal structure enables intercalation chemistry for nanocomposite synthesis.
5.Product Qualification
We have received numerous government awards in China for our outstanding products and integrity in business operations. For exports, we hold REACH certification for multiple products, meeting EU import requirements for copper salt products. We are certified under the ISO 9001 Quality Management System and comply with RoHS standards. We can provide Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and all necessary documentation for every product.
6.Deliver,Shipping And Serving
In terms of packaging, we currently have two packaging options: bags and drums, their standard is 25kg. each pallet can load a total of 1 ton of goods. Some of the products will be in the ordinary bag on the basis of increasing the ton bag for uniform packaging, in the protection of the product at the same time to ensure the beauty of the goods. For some special products or special needs of customers, we can ensure the sealing and safety of the products by the form of barrel.
7.FAQ
What are the delivery terms available?
Generally, we commonly use FOB and CIF for delivery. If the customer has other delivery requirements, we can also discuss and negotiate.
