Barium carbonate has the empirical formula CBaO3 and a molecular weight of 197.37. It is a tasteless, odorless, heavy white powder with a density of 4.2865. At about 1300°C it decomposes into BaO and CO2. Its vapor pressure is negligible.
Barium Carbonate AR is an inorganic compound, which is widely demanded for its purity, accurate composition and effectiveness. Precisely formulated, using pure ingredients, these chemicals are delivered in safe and tamper proof packaging so ensure damage-free delivery. It is used in ceramic industry as a constituent in glazes.
Barium carbonate is widely used in the ceramics industry as an ingredient in glazes. It acts as a flux, a matting and crystallizing agent and combines with certain colouring oxides to produce unique colours not easily attainable by other means.
The kinetics of decomposition of barium carbonate in nitrogen and in vacuo have been established using isothermal weight loss measurements. ... The observed activation energy for the decomposition of barium carbonate was _ 60 kcal/mole in the temperature range from 800°C to 1000oC.
Barium is a white liquid that is visible on X-rays. Barium passes through the digestive system and does not cause a person any harm.

Barium may cause constipation or impacted stool after the swallowing test if it isn't completely cleared from your body. You can manage constipation by drinking plenty of fluids and eating foods high in fiber to help the rest of the barium leave your body.
