Cadmium oxide (99.99%-Cd) PURATREM

Cadmium oxide is a chemical compound that is used as an optical sensor. The optical properties of this substance depend on the thickness and purity of its film, with the optimum concentration at about 10 µg/cm2. Cadmium oxide can be used to measure water vapor through absorption at its peak wavelength of 637 nm. It also has been shown to have structural similarities to cadmium hydroxide and cadmium chloride, and so may be effective in treating hyper-hydrosis.

Cadmium oxide is used in ceramic glazes, cadmium electroplating baths, pigments, phosphors, electrodes for storage batteries, cadmium salts, and heterogeneous catalysis for dehydrogenation. It is a basic conducting material used to prepare transparent conducting films, which finds use in phototransistors, liquid crystal displays, photodiodes, photovoltaic cells, and antireflection coatings. Electrodeposited cadmium oxide films have excellent electrocatalytic activity towards many organic compounds, ozone and oxygen evolution. CdO is selective in phenol photodegradation. Glassy carbon electrode coated with cadmium oxide film has been used to develop a sensitive and rapid assay method for penicillamine.
