Cu4 S4 O16
ceramic· Cu4 S4 O16
Cu4S4O16 is a mixed-valence copper sulfate oxide ceramic compound that combines copper, sulfur, and oxygen in a structured lattice. This material belongs to the family of complex metal oxysulfides and is primarily of research interest for its potential electrochemical and catalytic properties, though industrial applications remain limited. The material's mixed-oxidation-state copper centers and layered oxy-sulfide framework make it a candidate for energy storage, catalysis, and photocatalytic applications, though it has not achieved widespread commercial adoption compared to simpler copper oxides or sulfides.
