Chromium Oxide Green (Chromic Oxide; Chromium(III) Oxide)
Chromium(III) oxide (Cr₂O₃), also known as chromic oxide, is an inorganic compound and a principal oxide of chromium. Renowned for its stability and vibrant green hue, it serves as a green pigment in paints, inks, glasses, and ceramic glazes. When used in glazes, Cr₂O₃ creates a range of green shades, including lime green, kelly green, and black. Its green tones can be modified with small additions of other oxides, like cobalt or copper oxide. Chromium oxide green is also used in polishing pastes, catalysts, and as an advanced green pigment for various industries.
