Products Description of Ferric chloride CAS#7705-08-0
Ferric chloride is a black-brown hexagonal crystal. It is pomegranate red under transmitted light and metallic green under reflected light. It is easily soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetone and ether. It is soluble in liquid sulfur dioxide, phosphorus tribromide, phosphorus oxychloride, ethylamine, aniline, slightly soluble in carbon disulfide, and insoluble in glycerol. It is mainly used as a water treatment agent, as well as a mordant, catalyst, chlorinating agent, and used to manufacture other iron salts.
