Silver(I,III) oxide is the systematic name for the mixed-valence silver oxide with the formula Ag₄O₄ (equivalently Ag₂O·Ag₂O₃), also called tetrasilver tetroxide. The source archive TSTO page links to the Wikipedia article on this compound as the general reference for the material it sells.
Role in the source
The source treats "silver(I,III) oxide" and "tetrasilver tetroxide (TSTO)" as the same substance, using the Wikipedia link as the only non-patent reference on the page. The dossier supplies no additional chemical characterization beyond the name and formula.
Distinction from other silver compounds
The quoted patents also describe divalent silver (Ag(II)) bactericides and trivalent silver water-treatment compositions, which are related but distinct silver oxidation states and formulations. The source does not clearly separate the chemistry of Ag₄O₄ from that of the divalent and trivalent silver compositions claimed in the other patents. See Tetrasilver Tetroxide (Ag₄O₄) for the material as marketed and Electron Jumping Compound / Molecular Battery Claim for the mechanism asserted for it.
