copper sulfide (sulfide (material), sulfur compounds, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Broadly refers to any sulfide of copper, more specifically to the blackish crystalline sulfide CuS used in textile dyeing and as a black pigment in ancient painting. The presence of copper sulfide on the surface of ancient bronze artifacts has generated much debate over whether it should be seen as symptomatic of copper corrosion or as an intentional patination technique.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Verwijst in brede zin naar elk kopersulfide en meer in het bijzonder naar het zwartachtige kristallijne sulfide CuS, gebruikt voor het verven van textiel en als zwart pigment in oude schilderijen. De aanwezigheid van kopersulfide op het oppervlak van oude bronzen artefacten heeft geleid tot veel discussie over de vraag of dit het gevolg van kopercorrosie of een bewuste patineringstechniek was. |
