Ferric Chloride, 40% w/v as Hexahydrate
Manufacturer: LabChem Inc.
Ferric Chloride, 40% w/v as Hexahydrate from LabChem Inc. is a high-concentration, laboratory-grade iron(III) reagent engineered for demanding industrial and environmental applications. This potent formulation provides maximum reactive efficiency in a low-volume format, making it the preferred choice for large-scale coagulation testing, phosphate precipitation, and heavy metal removal. It is also an industry-standard reagent for metal surface etching and advanced water treatment protocols where high ionic strength is required.

Lead Times May Vary.
Features:
- Maximum Reactive Efficiency: The 40% concentration provides a dense source of ferric ions, allowing for smaller dosing volumes in bench-scale "jar testing" and industrial precipitation workflows
- Potent Flocculant: Rapidly destabilizes organic and inorganic colloids, resulting in faster settling times and clearer supernatants in wastewater analysis
- Industrial-Grade Etching: Optimized for the controlled removal of copper, brass, and stainless steel in metallurgical and electronic component manufacturing
- Consistency at Scale: LabChem’s standardized manufacturing ensures that every batch maintains the same chemical potency, eliminating the need for frequent recalibration of dosing pumps
Safety & Regulatory Information:
DANGER! Corrosive & Oxidizing: This concentrated solution is highly acidic and will cause severe skin burns and permanent eye damage upon contact. It may intensify fire when in contact with combustible materials.
- Personal Protection: Wear acid-resistant nitrile or butyl gloves, chemical splash goggles, and a protective lab coat. Use exclusively in a certified laboratory fume hood or a highly ventilated area.
- Storage: Store in a dedicated corrosives cabinet in a cool, dry place. Keep the container hermetically sealed and away from strong bases, alkali metals, and organic combustibles.
- Handling: Always add the reagent to water (never water to the reagent) if performing further dilutions to avoid splashing.
