Overview of Spherical bismuth oxide
Spherical bismuth oxide is an inorganic compound with the molecular formula Bi2O3, a yellow powder, insoluble in water but soluble in acid, and with a high melting point and boiling point. It is easy to be reduced to metallic bismuth by hydrogen, hydrocarbons, etc. In addition, the density of bismuth oxide changes with the crystalline type, and there are many kinds of crystalline types, and these properties make it able to show different properties under different conditions, so as to satisfy the needs of various applications.

Features of Spherical bismuth oxide
As a semiconductor catalyst, bismuth oxide has a good development prospect in the field of photocatalysis because its band gap energy is close to that of Ti02, and its stability is good. It can catalyse the decomposition of water and the degradation of pollutants with high efficiency, and its catalytic performance is especially outstanding under visible light. This makes bismuth oxide have important application value in environmental pollution control and energy conversion.
Bismuth oxide also has a high refractive index and dielectric constant, significant fluorescence properties, and inert water. These properties make it potentially valuable for applications in optics, electronics, and materials science.
