Ba2SiO4 (barium silicate) is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the silicate family, characterized by a barium-silicon-oxygen structure. It is primarily investigated for use in high-temperature applications, refractories, and specialized cement systems, where its thermal stability and chemical durability are advantageous. The material is notable in research contexts for calcium-free cement formulations and as a constituent in advanced refractory compositions where thermal cycling resistance is critical.
