Used as a green pigment in ceramics, glass, and paints due to its stability at high temperatures and resistance to UV degradation. Commonly employed in the production of green-colored construction materials like roofing tiles and concrete products. Acts as a polishing compound for metals and optical surfaces because of its fine abrasive properties. Utilized in the metallurgical industry as a component in refractory materials for lining furnaces. Also applied in some catalyst formulations for chemical synthesis processes.
