1.Product Introduction
Basic copper chloride is a naturally occurring mineral (atacamite) and industrially synthesized compound. It forms as a stable corrosion product on copper alloys in marine environments and serves as a non-toxic alternative to traditional copper-based pesticides. This green crystalline solid exhibits a unique layered structure, enabling controlled ion release. Its low solubility and reactivity make it ideal for wood preservation, antifouling paints, and agricultural micronutrient delivery. Historically used as a pigment, it now finds applications in catalysis, environmental remediation, and advanced material synthesis, leveraging its dual functionality as a copper reservoir and pH-responsive agent.

3.Product Feature And Application
Basic copper chloride serves as a vital micronutrient supplement in animal feed, preventing copper deficiency in livestock. It acts as a specialized fungicide in horticulture, protecting crops from fungal pathogens without phytotoxicity. In pyrotechnics, it functions as a blue colorant for fireworks and flares. The compound is also employed in the synthesis of copper-based catalysts for organic transformations and as a precursor for producing copper oxide nanoparticles. Its controlled reactivity enables use in electroplating baths for uniform copper deposition, particularly on complex geometries. Additionally, it finds niche applications in corrosion inhibition formulations for industrial cooling systems.
