Application

Copper(II) acetate hydrate can be used as:
  • A copper source in synthesizing CuS@C nanocomposites for sodium-ion battery anodes, delivering 485 mAh/g capacity after 200 cycles.
  • A precursor to synthesize copper oxide thin films through deposition techniques like atomic layer deposition (ALD) and pulsed spray pyrolysis, enabling p-type semiconductor layers for optoelectronic applications.
  • A electrocatalyst precursor for CO2 reduction to ethanol.
  • A Precursor for superhydrophobic coatings via electrochemical deposition.

General description

Copper(II) acetate hydrate is a high-purity (98%), blue crystalline solid widely used as a versatile precursor for copper-based materials. Its hydrate form enhances solubility in aqueous/organic solvents, facilitating solution processing for advanced applications. Recent research emphasizes its role in sustainable energy technologies, catalysis, and functional nanomaterials, aligning with trends in green chemistry and renewable energy.
