· BiOI

Bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI) is a layered bismuth-based semiconductor compound combining bismuth, oxygen, and iodine elements. It is primarily investigated in photocatalysis and photoelectrochemical applications, particularly for water splitting, pollutant degradation, and environmental remediation under visible light; its notable advantage over conventional semiconductors is visible-light activity and tunable bandgap, though it remains largely in research and pre-commercial development stages rather than mature industrial deployment.

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.
