Beryllium oxide (BeO) is a white crystalline oxide. It is obtained from beryllium or beryllium compounds by ignition in the air. The sintered beryllium oxide (beryllia), which is very stable, has ceramic characteristics. It is similar to aluminium oxide (Al2O3), is highly fire resistant (melting point: 2570°C), and has polymorphism.
Beryllium oxide formed at high temperatures (>800°C) is inert and is only easily dissolved in a hot solution of concentrated sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and ammonium sulfate ((NH4)2SO4).
This complex is used for rocket engines, catalysts, semiconductors, moderators of atomic reactors, and neutron reflectors.
Beryllium oxide is used in many high-performance semiconductor parts for applications such as radio equipment because it has good thermal conductivity while also being a good electrical insulator.
WARNING: BeO is carcinogenic.
