Barium oxide（Cat No.:M049383）, is a chemical compound composed of barium and oxygen. It is a white or yellowish powder with applications in various fields. Barium oxide finds use as a precursor in the production of other barium compounds, such as barium peroxide and barium hydroxide. It also serves as a dehydrating agent, capable of removing water from certain substances. In the electronics industry, barium oxide is used to create cathodes for vacuum tubes due to its thermionic emission properties. However, its highly reactive nature requires careful handling and consideration of potential hazards.
