 Product Description

Cupric ferrocyanide, also known as copper ferrocyanide, is a compound formed by the combination of cupric ions with the ferrocyanide ion. It is valued for its deep blue color, which is highly sought after in various industries for its aesthetic appeal. Primarily, cupric ferrocyanide is used as a pigment in the production of blue-colored ceramics, glasses, and enamels, providing a rich, enduring hue that withstands firing temperatures. Additionally, its chemical stability and unique color make it suitable for niche applications in art and decorative objects.

 

Application

In practical applications, cupric ferrocyanide is utilized in the ceramic and glass industries for coloring products a deep blue. Its resistance to heat and light ensures that the color remains vibrant even after prolonged exposure to high temperatures, making it ideal for pottery, stained glass, and enamel work. The compound's beauty and durability contribute to its popularity among artisans and manufacturers alike.
