Copper Carbonate (CuCO3)

Copper Carbonate (CuCO3) is used for its pigment properties in dyes and paints.  Brass, bronze and copper exposed to the elements will naturally develop a greenish tinge called a ‘verdigris patina’.  This patina is composed partly of Copper Carbonate which forms on roofs, statues and ornaments in the open air.  Copper Carbonate is a widely-used component of fireworks where its bright green hue is much-valued in pyrotechnic displays.  Copper Carbonate is known as a ‘pyrotechnic colorant’.
