· Ag2 O1

Silver oxide (Ag₂O) is an inorganic semiconductor compound composed of silver and oxygen, belonging to the metal oxide semiconductor family. It is primarily used in silver-zinc and silver-cadmium batteries for high-reliability applications such as military equipment, aerospace systems, and hearing aids, where its high energy density and stable discharge characteristics are critical. The material is also explored in photocatalysis research and gas sensors due to its semiconductor properties, though commercial applications remain concentrated in battery technology where it offers superior performance compared to alternative battery chemistries in demanding environments.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
