Ferric Chloride mainly used as water purifier for drinking water and sedimentation agent for wastewater treatment. Used in dyeing industry as oxidizer and mordant for dyeing indigo dye. Organic synthesis dichloroethane and other production catalyst. Chlorination extractant for silver and copper ore. An etch for photographic and printing plates. A raw material for ferrous salts such as iron phosphate, medicine, pigments and inks. The solution can increase building strength, corrosion resistance and prevent water seepage after penetrating into building concrete. Used for electronic circuit board and fluorescent digital tube production. Condensing agent when glycerin is recovered from waste iiquid of soap production .
Ferric chloride storage methods mainly include the following :
Dry, cool environment : Iron chloride should be stored in a dry, cool place, avoid direct sunlight and high temperature environment. This ensures that the properties of ferric chloride are stable and extends its service life .
Sealed preservation : Containers for storing ferric chloride should be well sealed to prevent moisture and impurities from entering the air and affecting its quality and stability .
Avoid humidity and heat : Ferric chloride is hygroscopic, soluble in water, and acidic in aqueous solutions. Too high humidity may cause the iron chloride to absorb moisture and agglomerate, while too high temperature may accelerate its chemical reaction, leading to a change in properties. Therefore, the storage environment should be kept dry and avoid humidity .
Add a small amount of hydrochloric acid : When preserving ferric chloride, a small amount of hydrochloric acid can be added to prevent hydrolysis. This is because ferric chloride is prone to hydrolysis in less acidic solutions to form iron hydroxide colloids .
Avoid separate storage with oxidants, active metal powders, etc. : When stored, ferric chloride should be stored separately from oxidants, active metal powders, etc., to avoid mixed storage to ensure safety .
