Ferric Chloride Hexahydrate Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Uses
Ferric Chloride Hexahydrate is used in photoengraving, photography, the manufacture of pigments and ink, the chlorination of silver and copper ores, and as a mordant in dyeing and printing textiles.
It is also utilized in the synthesis of organic compounds.
FeCl3 is used in the Mayer's tannic acid/ferric chloride method for staining tissue and their observation by light microscopy.
Studies of iron uptake and of apoptosis in cultured cells have utilized FeCl3 as an iron source.
Definition
Ferric Chloride Hexahydrate is a hydrate that is the hexahydrate form of iron trichloride. It has a role as an astringent and a Lewis acid. It is a hydrate, an inorganic chloride and an iron coordination entity. It contains an iron trichloride.
