Description

Chromium Nitrate is an inorganic salt widely utilized as a versatile precursor in industrial chemistry and materials science. Its primary value lies in its role as a source of chromium(III) ions for catalytic processes and the formation of specialized chromium-based compounds. This product is essential for manufacturers and research facilities in sectors such as catalysts, ceramics, and surface treatment. Chromium Nitrate CAS NO 10103-47-6 is supplied to meet the stringent quality demands of these advanced applications.

Application

• As a key precursor in the synthesis of heterogeneous catalysts for organic reactions and petroleum refining.
• In the manufacturing of ceramic pigments and glazes, providing green and black colorations.
• For the preparation of chromium oxide (Cr2O3) via thermal decomposition.
• In laboratory settings as a reagent-grade chemical for analytical and research purposes.
• As a corrosion inhibitor component in certain specialized treatment formulations.
• In the production of textile mordants for dyeing processes.

Quality Control

Our Chromium Nitrate is produced and tested under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch is analyzed to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications relevant to its intended industrial use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles, is provided with every shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture. Long-term storage under controlled, low-humidity conditions is recommended.
