Basic cupric chloride is a green crystalline solid exhibiting an orthorhombic crystal structure. It demonstrates amphoteric properties, reacting with both acids and strong bases. This thermally stable compound decomposes above 300°C into copper oxide, hydrochloric acid, and water. Characterized by low water solubility (Ksp ~10⁻²⁰), it acts as a controlled copper ion source.
1.Product Introduction
Basic cupric chloride is a green crystalline solid exhibiting an orthorhombic crystal structure. It demonstrates amphoteric properties, reacting with both acids and strong bases. This thermally stable compound decomposes above 300°C into copper oxide, hydrochloric acid, and water. Characterized by low water solubility (Ksp ~10⁻²⁰), it acts as a controlled copper ion source. Its unique layered structure enables applications in catalysis, electrochemistry, and as a precursor for advanced nanomaterials. The compound’s controlled reactivity and stability make it valuable in specialized chemical synthesis and environmental remediation processes.

3.Product Feature And Application
Basic cupric chloride serves as a selective analytical reagent for detecting amino acids and proteins in biochemical assays. It functions as a catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly in oxidation reactions and C–N bond formations. In gas sensing technology, it enables chlorine detection due to its reactivity with halogens. The compound stabilizes pigments in ceramics and glass, enhancing color durability. Its controlled copper release mechanism is exploited in marine antifouling coatings, preventing biofouling on ship hulls. Additionally, it aids in art conservation as a treatment for copper-alloy corrosion, forming protective patinas that stabilize historical artifacts.
