Applications
Used in Chlor-Alkali Industries during the pre-treatment of Brine that contains large quantity of sulphates and other Metallic Impurities require high degree of purification prior to electrolysis to avoid cell damaging. Barium Carbonate in the treatment of Brine helps to remove sulphates as Insoluble barium sulphate, calcium and magnesium salts as insoluble carbonates.
Used in the Manufacture of other Barium Compounds such as Barium Chloride, Barium Nitrate and Barium Sulphate.
Used as a fluxing ingredient in enamels, glazes and ceramic bodies.
Used in oil-well drilling industry to stabilise the desired properties of baryte suspension used as drilling mud.
Used in the manufacture of photographic paper, to generate Barium Sulphate in the paper that imparts a flat white appearance.
Used in the glass industry, containing various percentages of Barium Oxide is used for several purposes. To obtain Barium Oxide with required percentage, Barium Carbonate is added to the mix.
Used in the ferrous metallurgy, Barium Carbonate is used in some systems for steel carborizing.
