Barium Carbonate

Barium Carbonate

Barium Carbonate is used in the manufacturing of electro-ceramic materials, glazes, bricks, frits and enamels. It is widely used as a welding electrode coating and in glass manufacturing processes as purifying agent for uniformity in glass melt, caustic lye brine purification process. The product is also used as a source to manufacture other Barium chemicals like chloride, peroxide and nitrate.
