What is Basic Copper Carbonate Used For?
Basic Copper Carbonate is a versatile copper compound useful while processing chemicals, chemical catalysts, food-feed additives, and pigment precursors across multiple industries.
Pigments
Ceramics & Glass Pigment
Used as a pigment for ceramics and glass manufacturing, where it imparts blue and green colours to glazes, frits, and glass formulations. Its stability at kiln temperatures and consistent colour output make it a preferred colourant for decorative and architectural ceramics, art glass, and specialty glass products.
Electronics
Pigments and Colourants
Used as a copper source for green and blue pigments, paints and colourants, and as a raw material for other copper compounds.
Animal Feed
Copper Micronutrient Supplement
Basic Copper Carbonate is an approved source of copper micronutrient in animal feed formulations for livestock, poultry, and aquaculture. Copper is essential for enzyme function, bone development, and immune health in animals. The carbonate form offers controlled bioavailability and is widely used in premix and compound feed manufacturing.
Timber Treatment
Wood Preservative & Rot Protection
Used in timber treatment formulations to protect wood from fungal decay, wet rot, and insect attack. Basic Copper Carbonate is a key active ingredient in certain preservative systems for treated lumber used in construction, garden structures, and utility poles, providing long-term protection against biological degradation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Basic Copper Carbonate is the chemical compound with the chemical formula CuCO₃·Cu(OH)₂. The molecular weight is 221.116 g/mol and the CAS number is 12069-69-1. It is a mixed salt of copper carbonate and copper hydroxide, occurring naturally as the green mineral malachite and blue mineral azurite.
At Meghachem, for Basic Copper Carbonate packaging, 25 kg and 50 kg HM lined HDPE bags are available. As per customer requirements, bulk bags up to 1 MT in big sack format are also available. Custom packaging configurations can be arranged for established buyers on request.
Basic Copper Carbonate exists in two natural mineral forms: blue (azurite) and green (malachite). The synthetic form produced industrially typically appears as a pale green to blue-green powder. The colour varies depending on the ratio of carbonate to hydroxide and the specific synthesis conditions.
Our standard specification is CuCO₃·Cu(OH)₂ at 98.50% minimum, Cu₂ at 56.50% minimum, Carbonate at 26.00% minimum, Chloride at Not Detected (N.D.), Acid Insoluble at 100 ppm maximum, and Iron at 100 ppm maximum. A Certificate of Analysis is provided with every shipment confirming batch-specific values.
Yes. Basic Copper Carbonate is an approved source of copper micronutrient in animal feed for livestock, poultry, and aquaculture in many regulated markets. Copper is essential for animal health at trace levels. Our product is made to a precisely controlled composition. Buyers requiring specific feed-grade documentation should mention this at the time of inquiry.
Basic Copper Carbonate is used across ceramics and glass manufacturing (as a colourant and pigment precursor), electronics (semiconductor device production), animal feed (copper micronutrient supplementation), timber treatment (wood preservative formulations), and chemical manufacturing (as a precursor for other copper compounds and catalysts).
