Barium oxide, also known as baria, is a white hygroscopic non-flammable compound with the formula BaO. It has a cubic structure and is used in cathode-ray tubes , crown glass, and catalysts. It is harmful to human skin and if swallowed in large quantity causes irritation.

BaAl 4 is an intermediate reacted with barium oxide to produce the metal. Note that not all barium is reduced. [9]: 3 8 BaO + BaAl 4 → Ba↓ + 7 BaAl 2 O 4. The remaining barium oxide reacts with the formed aluminium oxide: [9]: 3 BaO + Al 2 O 3 → BaAl 2 O 4. and the overall reaction is [9]: 3 4 BaO + 2 Al → 3 Ba↓ + BaAl 2 O 4
Barium hydroxide can be prepared by dissolving barium oxide (BaO) in water: BaO + H 2 O → Ba(OH) 2. It crystallises as the octahydrate, which converts to the monohydrate upon heating in air. At 100 °C in a vacuum, the monohydrate will yield BaO and water. [3] The monohydrate adopts a layered structure (see picture above).
The most famous ReBCO is yttrium barium copper oxide, YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7−x (or Y123), the first superconductor found with a critical temperature above the boiling point of liquid nitrogen. [10] Its molar ratio is 1 to 2 to 3 for yttrium, barium, and copper and it has a unit cell consisting of subunits, which is the typical structure of ...
Barium peroxide arises by the reversible reaction of O 2 with barium oxide. The peroxide forms around 500 °C and oxygen is released above 820 °C. [1] 2 BaO + O 2 ⇌ 2 BaO 2. This reaction is the basis for the now-obsolete Brin process for separating oxygen from the atmosphere. Other oxides, e.g. Na 2 O and SrO, behave similarly. [4]
Lanthanum barium copper oxide, or LBCO, is an inorganic compound with the formula CuBa 0.15 La 1.85 O 4. It is a black solid produced by heating an intimate mixture of barium oxide, copper(II) oxide, and lanthanum oxide in the presence of oxygen. The material was discovered in 1986 and was the first high temperature superconductor. [1]
Yttrium barium copper oxide (YBCO) is a family of crystalline chemical compounds that display high-temperature superconductivity; it includes the first material ever discovered to become superconducting above the boiling point of liquid nitrogen [77 K (−196.2 °C; −321.1 °F)] at about 93 K (−180.2 °C; −292.3 °F).
