Description

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.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
