CAS 1317-42-6: Cobalt sulfide (CoS)

Description:Cobalt sulfide (CoS) is an inorganic compound characterized by its dark gray to black appearance and is primarily composed of cobalt and sulfur. It is a solid at room temperature and exhibits a crystalline structure, typically forming in a hexagonal or cubic lattice. CoS is insoluble in water but can dissolve in strong acids, releasing hydrogen sulfide gas. This compound is known for its semiconductor properties and is often utilized in various applications, including catalysis, battery technology, and as a pigment in ceramics and glass. Cobalt sulfide can be produced through several methods, including the reaction of cobalt salts with sulfide sources. It is important to handle CoS with care, as it can be toxic and poses environmental hazards if not managed properly. Additionally, cobalt compounds, including CoS, have been studied for their potential health effects, emphasizing the need for appropriate safety measures during handling and use.
