Silver arsenate (Ag₃AsO₄) is an inorganic ceramic compound composed of silver and arsenate ions, belonging to the family of metal arsenate materials. While primarily encountered in laboratory and research contexts rather than high-volume industrial production, this compound has attracted attention in photocatalysis, ion-exchange applications, and as a precursor material for synthesizing other silver-based ceramics. Its notable characteristics within the arsenate family—including its crystal structure and chemical stability—make it relevant for specialized applications where arsenic-containing compounds are acceptable, though its use remains limited compared to more conventional ceramic alternatives due to toxicity considerations and availability constraints.
