general description |
ferric chloride is an orange to brown-black solid. ferric chloride is slightly soluble in water. ferric chloride is noncombustible. when wet ferric chloride is corrosive to aluminum and most metals. pick up and remove spilled solid before adding water. ferric chloride is used to treat sewage, industrial waste, to purify water, as an etching agent for engraving circuit boards, and in the manufacture of other chemicals. |
air & water reactions |
very hygroscopic. slightly water soluble, where a 0.1m solution has a ph of 2.0. |
reactivity profile |
alkali metal hydroxides, acids, anhydrous chlorides of iron, tin, and aluminum, pure oxides of iron and aluminum, and metallic potassium are some of the catalysts that may cause ethylene oxide to rearrange and polymerize, liberating heat, [j. soc. chem. ind. 68:179(1949)]. explosions occur , although infrequently, from the combination of ethylene oxide and alcohols or mercaptans, [chem. eng. news 20:1318(1942)]. allyl chloride may polymerize violently under conditions involving an acid catalyst, such as sulfuric acid, ferric chloride, aluminum chloride, lewis acids, and ziegler type catalysts (initiators), [ventrone (1971)]. |
health hazard |
inhalation of dust may irritate nose and throat. ingestion causes irritation of mouth and stomach. dust irritates eyes. prolonged contact with skin causes irritation and burns. |
fire hazard |
special hazards of combustion products: irritating hydrogen chloride fumes may form in fire. |
