| surface tension | 72.2mN/m at 18mg/L and 20 ℃ |
| EPA chemical information | Information provided by: ofmpub.epa.gov (external link) |
| Main use | In nature, it exists in the form of chalcocite (also called pyroite). Used as anti-fouling paint, solid lubricant, catalyst, solar cell, etc. Copper in cuprous sulfide is monovalent, and sulfur is -2. |
| solubility in water (g/100ml) | dissolved grams per 100ml of water: 1.361 × 10-15/20 ℃ |
| production method | 1. copper powder and sulfur are mixed in a molar ratio of 2:1, sealed in a heat-resistant glass tube under vacuum, and heated at 450 ℃ for about 1h. 2. Cu2S can be prepared by heating copper powder or copper foil to 1000 ℃ in an atmosphere with a sulfur partial pressure of 1 33 × 10-5Pa. |
| category | toxic substances |
| flammability hazard characteristics | non-combustible; toxic copper and sulfur oxide smoke from the fire site |
| storage and transportation characteristics | warehouse low temperature, ventilation, drying |
| fire extinguishing agent | water, carbon dioxide, dry powder, sand |
| occupational standard | TWA 0.1 mg (copper)/m3; STEL 0.2 mg (copper)/m3 |
