Germanium Oxide GeO2 powder:

Germanium dioxide, also known as Germanium oxide, is an organic compound that has the molecular formula of GeO2. This is the oxide germanium. It is electronic in the same way as carbon dioxide. The chemical formula for germanium dioxide (chemical formula GeO2) is an organic compound that is white or colorless. It is the primary commercial source of germanium. Germaniumoxid exhibits both basic and acidic qualities. If pure germanium is exposed to atmospheric oxygen, the oxide forms a passivation coating. One type of crystal system, 1033, is the transition temperature. Used primarily for making metal germanium. Also used in spectral analyses and manufacturing semiconductor materials.

GeO2 comes in two forms: hexagonal and Tetragonal. GeO2 in hexagonal form has the same structure as that of b quartz. The germanium coordination numbers are 4. Tetra-GeO2, which is a soft mineral, has the rutile-like structure found in stibnite. In this matter, the germanium coordination number is 6. GeO2 in its amorphous form (glassy) is comparable to molten silicone.

Germanium Oxide GeO2 powder performance:

Germanium Oxide, a stable and white powder, is most often extracted from lignite coke fly ash or sphalerite zircon ores. Germanium concentrates can also be processed using a chlorine distillation technique that yields germanium chloride (GeCl4). Germanium Oxide in this form has a hexagonal crystal arrangement, and it is easily soluble in water at approximately 4.5g per L (25degC).

How is Germanium Oxide GO2 powder produced?

Germanium metal oxidation method: germanium metal is heated in oxygen to obtain germanium oxide. This method is simple and feasible, but it needs high-purity metal germanium raw material, high reaction temperature, and large energy consumption.

Germanium hydride oxidation method: the reaction of germanium hydride and oxygen at high temperatures can obtain high-purity germanium oxide. The raw material cost of this method is high, so it is usually suitable for the production of high-purity germanium oxide.

Germanium nitrate reduction method: the reaction of germanium nitrate and zinc metal at high temperature reduces germanium nitrate to germanium oxide. This method has a low raw material cost, but it requires high temperature and high-pressure equipment and is difficult to operate.

Carbon reduction method: the reaction of metal germanium and carbon at high temperatures can obtain germanium oxide. This method has low raw material cost but high reaction temperature and difficult operation.

Ion exchange method: The solution containing metal ions is mixed with the solution containing germanium oxide ions, and the germanium oxide precipitation is generated through the ion exchange reaction. After filtration, washing, and drying, germanium oxide products with high purity were obtained.

Solvent extraction method: the solution containing metal ions is mixed with the solution containing germanium oxide ions, and the germanium oxide precipitation is generated by solvent extraction reaction. After filtration, washing, and drying, germanium oxide products with high purity were obtained.


Germanium dioxide Uses:

Electronics: Germanium oxide has high electrical conductivity and high light transmittance and is widely used in the field of electronics. It is a method to create electronic devices, solar cells, and transparent conductive films. In solar cells, germanium oxide can be used as a window material to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery. In addition, germanium oxide can also be used to manufacture advanced electronic devices such as integrated circuits and microwave devices.
