· Bi4 V4 O16

Bi₄V₄O₁₆ is a mixed-valence bismuth vanadate ceramic compound belonging to the family of complex metal oxides with layered or tunnel crystal structures. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for photocatalytic and electrochemical applications, where its variable oxidation states and band structure enable light-driven reactions and ion transport; it represents an alternative to more common vanadates and bismuth oxides for applications requiring visible-light activity or enhanced catalytic performance.

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.
