Cadmium chloride oxide (CdClO) is an inorganic ceramic compound combining cadmium, chlorine, and oxygen phases. This is a research-stage material within the broader family of mixed-halide oxides; it has seen limited industrial adoption compared to more established cadmium compounds, and its practical engineering applications remain largely experimental. Interest in CdClO centers on potential use in optoelectronic devices, photovoltaic absorber layers, and specialized ceramic coatings, though toxicity concerns associated with cadmium and regulatory restrictions in many regions have significantly constrained development and deployment.
