Physical & Chemical Properties

This product presents as pale blue-green crystalline solid or powder. The material is photosensitive and undergoes slow efflorescence and oxidation when exposed to dry air. It delivers consistent solubility performance, fully soluble in water and insoluble in ethanol under standard ambient conditions.

The material has a density of 1.86 g/cm³. It exhibits low toxicological properties and mild irritant characteristics. Dehydration occurs at temperatures above 100°C. The product maintains stable chemical properties under normal atmospheric storage conditions.

Industrial Applications

The product serves as a reliable raw material for cross-industry industrial processing with fixed application scenarios. It is applicable for water purification treatment projects. In inorganic chemical manufacturing, it acts as a foundational feedstock for producing ferric oxide pigments, magnetic materials, yellow prussiate salts and other ferric salt products.

In textile printing and dyeing processing, it functions as a standard mordant. It supports leather tanning production and serves as a wood preservative for timber processing. The material is also used in pharmaceutical manufacturing for raw material preparation targeting iron deficiency anemia treatment products.

Additional applicable scenarios include soil iron deficiency improvement and feed additive formulation. It can be compounded with tannic acid, gallic acid and other compatible compounds for the production of blue-black ink.

Packaging Standard

Standard packaging adopts a double-layer structure with an inner polyethylene lining bag and an outer composite plastic woven bag. Each finished package carries a fixed net weight of 25kg, with uniform packaging specifications for bulk shipment and inventory management.

Storage & Transportation Requirements

Warehouse storage requires dry, ventilated indoor environments to avoid damp and high-temperature conditions. During road and freight transportation, goods shall be kept away from heat sources and moisture. Manual and mechanical unloading operations need to be conducted gently to prevent package breakage and material leakage.

Segregated storage and transportation is mandatory. The product must be kept completely separate from toxic materials to avoid cross-contamination and ensure cargo safety compliance.
