Chromic acid Uses

 Chromic acid is an intermediate in chromium plating, and is also used in ceramic glazes, and colored glass. It can be used to clean laboratory glassware, because a solution of chromic acid in sulfuric acid (also known as a sulfochromic mixture) is a powerful oxidizing agent.

Chromic acid Safety Profile

RIDADR: UN 1463/1755
Confirmed human carcinogen. Poison by subcutaneous route. Mutation data reported. A powerful oxidizer. A powerful irritant of skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Can cause a dermatitis, bronchoasthma, “chrome holes,” damage to the eyes. Dangerously reactive. Incompatible with acetic acid, acetic anhydride, tetrahydronaphthalene, acetone, alcohols, alkali metals, ammonia, arsenic, bromine penta fluoride, butyric acid, n,n-dimethylformamide, hydrogen sulfide, peroxyformic acid, phosphorus, potassium hexacyanoferrate, pyridine, selenium, sodium, sulfur, and many other materials. See also CHROMIUM COMPOUNDS.

Chromic acid Specification

 Chromic acid (CAS NO.7738-94-5) is also named as AI3-51760 ; Acide chromique ; Acide chromique [French] ; CCRIS 8994 ; Caswell No. 221 ; Chromic(VI) acid ; Chromium hydroxide oxide ; EPA Pesticide Chemical Code 021101 ; HSDB 6769 . Chromic acid (CAS NO.7738-94-5) is a dark purplish red solid. It is soluble in water with the release of heat.Chromic acid itself is noncombustible but it will accelerate the burning of combustible materials. Its solution is corrosive to metals and tissue. It is a very powerful oxidizing agent, confirmed human carcinogen. Dangerously reactive with acetone, alcohols, alkali metals (sodium, potassium), ammonia, arsenic, dimethylformamide, hydrogen sulfide, phosphorus, peroxyformic acid, pyridine, selenium, sulfur, and many other chemicals. Chromic acid can cause a violent explosion, in contact with organic matter. It may cause a violent oxidation leading to ignition. When mixed with sulfuric acid for glass cleaning operations, used solution in closed bottle may explode due to internal pressure of carbon dioxide arising from contamination by carbon compounds. Very irritating to eyes and respiratory tract. Ingestion causes severe gastrointestinal symptoms.
