Chromium(IV) oxide, also known as chromium dioxide (with the chemical formula CrO2), is a compound of chromium in which chromium is in the +4 oxidation state. It is primarily known for its use in magnetic recording media due to its ferromagnetic properties. Chromium dioxide is a black solid that is insoluble in water and organic solvents. Its ferromagnetic characteristics make it valuable in applications such as high-density magnetic tape and other recording materials.
