Barium acetate is a white, crystalline, water - soluble solid. It is commonly used as a component of ceramics, pigments, inks, vanishes, and paints. Another critical application of barium acetate is as a raw material for manufacturing barium titanate (BaTiO3), an advanced ceramic material used in thermistors, gas lighters, resonators, ultrasonic cleaners, ceramic capacitors, actuators, buzzer, ferroelectric film memory and electro - optic devices.

These applications are summarized as:

• paint dryer

• mordent 

• barium ceramics (e. g. barium titanate) precursor

• green pyrotechnic colorant

• catalyst

• grease ingredient

• high quality perovskite solar cell additive
