Potassium ferrocyanide (Potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) trihydrate)

Product Overview & Quality

  • Product Name: Potassium ferrocyanide (Potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) trihydrate)
  • Grade: Analytical Reagent (AR Grade), optimized for high-purity laboratory applications and chemical synthesis.
  • Purity (Assay): Not less than 99%
  • Physical Properties: Lemon-yellow crystals or crystalline powder; odorless.
  • Solubility: Readily soluble in water, producing a clear yellow solution.

Safety & Hazards

  • Classification: Classified as an irritant. Generally exhibits lower acute toxicity than simple cyanides but requires careful handling.
  • Critical Danger: Do NOT mix with strong acids. Contact with acids releases highly toxic Hydrogen Cyanide gas.
  • Health Risks: Direct contact may cause eye and skin irritation. Dust inhalation may irritate the respiratory tract.
  • First Aid Measures: Flush affected eyes or skin with plenty of water. If dust or fumes are inhaled, move to fresh air immediately and seek medical attention.

Handling & Storage
