Heavy, white, crystalline powder; odorless. Soluble in concentrated
acids, alkalies; slightly soluble in dilute
acids, water.
Physikalische Eigenschaften
White crystals; dimorphic; exists in tetragonal and orthorhombic forms; density 5.75 g/cm
3 (tetragonal), 6.04 g/cm
3 (orthorhombic); melts at 733°C forming a deep yellow liquid; vaporizes at 1,245°C; insoluble in water; soluble in acids and alkalies.
Verwenden
Tellurium dioxide is also used in devices which can convert light into sound (acousto-optic material). Glasses made of tellurium oxide have high refractive indices and transmit into mid-IR region. It is used to make glasses with special properties. It is useful in optical waveguides and optical fiber amplification.
Vorbereitung Methode
Tellurium dioxide in its orthorhombic form occurs in nature as mineral tellurite. It is mined from natural deposits. Also, tellurium dioxide is produced as an intermediate during recovery of tellurium metal from anode slimes of electrolytic copper refining (See Tellurium, Production). The dioxide also is prepared by treating tellurium metal with hot nitric acid to form 2TeO
2?HNO
3. The product then is heated to drive off nitric acid.
Allgemeine Beschreibung
Tellurium dioxide (TeO
2) is a ceramic material that can be used as a semiconducting oxide. It has a wide band gap and high mobility as determined by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In bulk quantity, it exists in two polymorphs which include tetragonal α-TeO
2 and orthorhombic β-TeO
2.
Sicherheitsprofil
Poison by intratracheal route. An experimental teratogen. Experimental reproductive effects. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Te. See also TELLURIUM COMPOUNDS.
läuterung methode
Dissolve it in 5M NaOH, filter it and precipitate it by adding 10M HNO3 to the filtrate until the solution is acid to phenolphthalein. After decanting the supernatant, the precipitate is washed five times with distilled water, then dried for 24hours at 110o [Horner & Leonhard J Am Chem Soc 74 3694 1952].
