About this item

  • Concentrated Ferric Chloride Solution: A 40% aqueous solution of ferric chloride (FeCl3), offering a powerful and versatile chemical for various industrial and technical applications. This dark brown liquid provides a high concentration of iron(III) ions in a ready-to-use form.
  • Effective Etchant: Widely used in the electronics industry for etching copper in printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing. Its strong oxidizing properties make it efficient in creating precise circuit patterns on copper-clad boards.
  • Water Treatment Applications: Serves as an excellent coagulant and flocculant in water and wastewater treatment processes. It's effective in removing suspended solids, phosphates, and other contaminants from water.
  • Catalyst in Organic Synthesis: Utilized as a Lewis acid catalyst in various organic reactions, particularly in the synthesis of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals. Its moderate strength makes it suitable for selective transformations.
  • Metal Surface Treatment: Employed in metal finishing processes, including the oxidation of metals to create protective coatings or decorative finishes. It's particularly useful in creating patinas on copper and its alloys.
  • Odor Control: Effective in controlling hydrogen sulfide odors in sewage treatment plants and industrial processes, helping to mitigate environmental and workplace odor issues.
  • Consistent Concentration: The 40% concentration provides a good balance between handling safety and effectiveness, suitable for a wide range of applications without requiring further dilution in many cases.
  • Corrosion Consideration: Due to its acidic nature, proper handling and storage in corrosion-resistant containers are essential. It's compatible with many plastics and rubbers commonly used in chemical storage and transfer systems.
