MUSCAT CHEMICAL TAG::
FERRIC CHLORIDE PURE HEXAHYDRATE It is used to treat sewage, industrial waste, to purify water, as an etching agent for engraving circuit boards, and in the manufacture of other chemicals. Ferric chloride, solution appears as a colorless to light brown aqueous solution that has a faint hydrochloric acid odor.
Ferric Chloride is used in photoengraving, photography, the manufacture of pigments and ink, the chlorination of silver and copper ores, and as a mordant in dyeing and printing textiles. It is also utilized in the synthesis of organic compounds. FeCl3 is used in the Mayer's tannic acid/ferric chloride method for staining tissue and their observation by light microscopy. Studies of iron uptake and of apoptosis in cultured cells have utilized FeCl3 as an iron source.
F 1305 (OTTO) Ferric chloride, hexahydrate, 99% Cas 10025-77-1 - used in sewage treatment and drinking water production.In this application, FeCl3 in slightly basic water reacts with the hydroxide ion to form a floc of iron(III) hydroxide, or more precisely formulated as FeO(OH)−, that can remove suspended materials.
