Cadmium chloride oxide (CdCl₂O) is an inorganic ceramic compound containing cadmium, chlorine, and oxygen. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established industrial use, belonging to the family of mixed halide-oxide ceramics that are studied for potential applications in optoelectronics, photocatalysis, and solid-state chemistry. Engineers and materials researchers investigate cadmium-based compounds for their semiconducting and photochemical properties, though practical deployment is limited by cadmium's toxicity and regulatory restrictions in most industrial regions.
