Applications
Electronics and Optoelectronics
Transparent Conductive Films (TCFs): One of the most common applications of indium oxide nanopowder is in the production of indium tin oxide (ITO), which is a transparent and conductive material. ITO is widely used in touch screens, flat-panel displays, solar cells, and LEDs. The nanopowder form of indium oxide enhances the conductivity and transparency of ITO films, improving their performance in electronic devices.
Semiconductors: Indium oxide is used as a semiconductor material in various electronic devices, including field-effect transistors (FETs), photodetectors, and diodes. Its high electron mobility and ability to be processed into thin films make it a suitable material for these applications.
Transparent Conductive Coatings: Indium oxide nanopowder is used for transparent conductive coatings on glass and plastic surfaces. These coatings are used in windows, smart glass, and solar panels, providing both transparency and electrical conductivity.
Catalysis
Catalysts in Chemical Reactions: Indium oxide nanopowder has significant catalytic properties and is used in various chemical reactions, such as oxidation, hydrogenation, and dehydrogenation processes. It is particularly useful in the production of fine chemicals and petrochemical processes.
Environmental Catalysis: Indium oxide nanopowder is employed in environmental applications for the treatment of pollutants. It serves as a catalyst for the degradation of organic compounds and toxic gases, particularly in automotive catalytic converters to reduce CO, NOx, and HC emissions. Additionally, it is used in the photocatalytic removal of pollutants in air and water treatment systems.
Water Splitting for Hydrogen Production: Indium oxide nanoparticles are also being explored for use in photocatalytic water splitting to produce hydrogen. Their high surface area and ability to absorb light make them ideal for enhancing the efficiency of solar-driven hydrogen production processes.
