Chromium (II) oxide (CrO) is an inorganic chemical compound of chromium and oxygen (more precisely an oxide of chromium).

Extraction and presentation

Chromium (II) oxide can be obtained by reducing chromium (III) oxide with phosphinic acid:

Black chromium (II) oxide is also formed from the thermal decomposition of chromium hexacarbonyl at 250 to 550 ° C in a vacuum or from the reaction of chromium amalgam with nitric acid .

A hexagonal brown-red crystal powder can be obtained by reducing chromium (III) oxide with hydrogen .

properties

Chromium (II) oxide has a sodium chloride structure and disproportionates into chromium and chromium (III) oxide at higher temperatures. It does not exist in compact form, but can grow on cubic substrates as Cr x O (0.67 <x <1).

use

Chromium (II) oxide is used as a component of toner materials and as a component and intermediate product of chromium oxide thin-film structures in the electronics industry.
