Co2O3
ceramic· Co2O3
Co₂O₃ (cobalt sesquioxide) is an inorganic ceramic oxide compound consisting of cobalt and oxygen in a 2:3 molar ratio. This material belongs to the family of transition metal oxides and is typically studied for applications requiring magnetic, catalytic, or electrochemical properties. While less commonly specified as a primary engineering material compared to more stable cobalt oxides (such as CoO or Co₃O₄), Co₂O₃ appears primarily in research contexts for catalysis, energy storage, and functional ceramic applications where its mixed-valence cobalt state offers specific electronic or magnetic advantages.

Regulatory Screening
Environmental
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.
