White amorphous powder or rhombohedral lobular body. Relative density 4. 26; Melting point 500 ℃. Soluble in dilute acid, ammonium salt, potassium cyanide solution, insoluble in water and organic solvents, boiling in water for a long time does not decompose. Stable in air, heated to 500 ° C decomposition, thermal decomposition of toxic cadmium smoke.
The aqueous solution of cadmium sulfate is heated to boiling, and ammonium carbonate solution is slowly added, I .e. cadmium carbonate is precipitated, and the obtained precipitate is washed with hot water and dilute ammonium carbonate solution, filtered and dried, pure cadmium carbonate was obtained.
reagent for the determination of sulfur. Used in the manufacture of polyester intermediates and insulating materials, glass pigment flux, organic reaction catalysts, plastic plasticizers and stabilizers and the production of cadmium salt raw materials.

toxicity | highly toxic. Cadmium compounds with lower solubility first act on respiratory organs and gastrointestinal tract, and their absorption is manifested as damage to the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system, internal organs, mainly heart, kidney, liver, skeletal muscle and bone tissue. Acute poisoning of cadmium oxide dust can show irritation symptoms of upper respiratory tract and deep mucosa of respiratory tract, such as sweet taste in mouth, forehead pain, dizziness, weakness, nausea and upper abdominal pain. Symptoms of chronic poisoning are decreased smell, headache and weight loss. The maximum allowable concentration of cadmium oxide dust is 0.1mg/m3, and the daily average concentration is 0.03 mg/m3. In case of poisoning, the poisoned person should be moved to a place with fresh air as soon as possible, quiet and warm. If there are symptoms of respiratory tract irritation, warm 2% sodium bicarbonate solution should be inhaled. Anti-toxic masks and protective glasses should be worn at work, seamless work clothes or jumpsuits should be worn, rubber gloves and aprons should be worn, and mouth should be gargle during and after work. |
use | used as an intermediate in the manufacture of polyester, a flux for glass pigments, a catalyst for organic reactions, a plastic plasticizer, a stabilizer, and a raw material for the production of cadmium salts intermediates and insulating materials used in the manufacture of polyester. Used as a flux for glass pigments, a catalyst for organic reactions, a plasticizer and stabilizer for plastics, and as a raw material for the production of cadmium salts. Determination of sulfur. Rare earth optical glass manufacturing, electroplating and coloring. catalysts, plasticizers and stabilizers. Intermediate and insulating materials for making polyester can also be used as raw materials for producing cadmium salt. |
production method | cadmium nitrate method cadmium ingot reacts with nitric acid to generate cadmium nitrate, then reacts with soda ash to generate cadmium carbonate, which is then washed, dried and crushed to obtain finished cadmium carbonate. Its 8HNO3 3Cd → 3Cd(NO3)2 2NO 4 H2OCd(NO3)2 Na2CO3 → CdCO3 2NANO3 hydrochloric acid method melts cadmium ingots, is poured into water to excite into granules, hydrochloric acid is added to dissolve to generate cadmium chloride, a small amount of nitric acid is added at the same time, ammonia water is added under stirring to adjust PH5 ~ 6, then a small amount of hydrogen peroxide is added to remove iron, after filtration, react with the prepared soda ash to Ph9 ~ 10, rinse with water to neutral, after filtration, it is dried at 120 ℃ to obtain cadmium carbonate finished product. Its Cd 2HCl → CdC12 H2 ↑ CdCl2 Na2CO3 → CdCO3 2NaCl |
