Bismuth (III) oxide is obtained from bismuth-containing ores and reduced to crude bismuth using carbon. It is purified by zone melting. It is obtained as a by-product of the refining of metals such as lead, copper, gold, silver and tin.
Alloyed with other metals, such as tin, cadmium, among others, it produces low melting point materials used in fire detection and extinguishing systems.
Alloyed with manganese, "bismanol" is obtained, used for the manufacture of very powerful permanent magnets.
It is used as a catalyst in the production of acrylic fibers.
Bismuth (III) oxide is used to manufacture high refractive index glasses and yellow enamels.
Bismuth oxychloride, BiOCl, is used in cosmetics and in the manufacture of artificial pearls.
They come in the presentation of 15 Kg ingots, with a minimum purity of 99.99 %, distributed in packages and batches, according to customer requirements.
