Chrome oxide green

Chromium(III) oxide for high-performance industrial applications
Chromium oxide green, also known as chromium(III) oxide or by the chemical formula Cr₂O₃, is an inorganic oxide with a deep green color. It is one of the most stable green pigments in the world and is used in numerous industrial processes due to its thermal and chemical properties. Compared to organic pigments, chromium oxide green is extremely resistant to light, heat and chemicals, which makes it an indispensable raw material in various areas of application.
Versatile use in industry and technology:
Chromium oxide green is used in numerous branches of industry. It is particularly common in the ceramics industry, where it is used to color glazes and melts. In metalworking, it is used as an abrasive and a component of polishing pastes. Chromium(III) oxide is also valued in construction chemistry - especially for colored concretes, screeds and plasters. Due to its high temperature stability, the material is ideal for high-temperature applications and corrosion protection coatings.
Typical areas of application:
- Ceramics & technical porcelain
- Corrosion protection systems
- Heat-resistant coatings
- Color pigments in paints & plastics
