Potassium Ferricyanide
Potassium Ferricyanide is an inorganic coordination compound with the chemical formula K₃[Fe(CN)₆]. Also known as Potassium Hexacyanoferrate(III) or Red Prussiate of Potash, it is a red crystalline salt commonly used in laboratory analysis, analytical chemistry, redox reactions, electrochemistry, and scientific research involving iron and cyanide complexes. It is particularly useful as an oxidising agent and redox indicator in various laboratory applications.
Product Specifications
Potassium Ferricyanide is an inorganic coordination compound with the chemical formula K₃[Fe(CN)₆] and CAS Number 13746-66-2. It has a molecular weight of approximately 329.24 g/mol and is commonly supplied as bright red or orange-red crystalline powder or crystals. It is soluble in water and produces a yellowish to orange-red aqueous solution.
Potassium Ferricyanide is valued for its oxidising properties and reversible redox behaviour. Common laboratory applications include redox titration, analytical chemistry, electrochemical research, preparation of chemical solutions, and studies involving iron coordination complexes. It is also used in specialised laboratory procedures, including photographic processing and certain chemical testing applications.
Its stable coordination structure and characteristic redox properties make Potassium Ferricyanide useful in analytical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, electrochemistry, and general laboratory research. The appropriate grade and purity should be selected according to the requirements of the intended application.
KSFE Malaysia supplies laboratory chemicals and scientific products for research institutions, educational facilities, and general laboratory applications.
Safety Note: Potassium Ferricyanide should be handled with appropriate care to minimise exposure through inhalation, ingestion, or direct contact. It may cause eye irritation and is potentially harmful to aquatic organisms. Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with the eyes and skin. Wear suitable personal protective equipment, including safety goggles, protective gloves, and appropriate laboratory clothing. Handle in a well-ventilated area and minimise dust generation. Keep away from acids, as contact with acids may release highly toxic hydrogen cyanide gas. Do not expose to excessive heat or incompatible substances. Store in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place, separately from acids. Follow the supplier's Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for proper handling, storage, and disposal.
