Ferric Chloride Analytical Reagent Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-CA-12629
The Ferric Chloride Analytical Reagent is an iron(III) chloride reagent used for controlled chemical analysis, ferric-ion demonstrations, solution preparation, and supervised chemistry-lab procedures. It is suitable for trained chemistry teachers, laboratory technicians, authorised school and college laboratories, distributors, and procurement teams requiring SDS-based handling and verified reagent documentation.
Product Description
Ferric Chloride Analytical Reagent from School Equipments India is prepared for the laboratory chemicals and chemical-analysis reagent category. A direct verified product page for this exact chemical was not found, so grade, assay, hydrate form, pack size, container type, SDS, COA, batch number, and expiry or retest date must be confirmed before catalogue upload or ordering.
Ferric chloride is also called iron(III) chloride or iron trichloride. It may be supplied as anhydrous FeCl3 or as ferric chloride hexahydrate, FeCl3·6H2O. The supplied form affects molecular weight, weighing calculations, moisture behaviour, and prepared-solution concentration.
Key Features
- Analytical reagent request: final assay and impurity limits should be verified through a Certificate of Analysis.
- Iron(III) chloride identity: supports ferric-ion chemistry, chemical analysis, and reagent documentation.
- CAS-backed procurement: 7705-08-0 applies to anhydrous ferric chloride; 10025-77-1 applies to ferric chloride hexahydrate.
- Formula FeCl3: useful for stoichiometry, solution preparation, and classroom calculations.
- Hydrate-form confirmation: important because FeCl3·6H2O has a different molecular weight from anhydrous FeCl3.
- Corrosion and eye controls: users should wear PPE and avoid contact with skin, eyes, clothing, and metals.
- Procurement-safe listing: unverified pack size, assay, grade, and documents are marked for confirmation.

How to Use the Ferric Chloride Analytical Reagent
- Read the current SDS, COA, label, and laboratory risk assessment before use.
- Confirm whether the supplied material is anhydrous ferric chloride, ferric chloride hexahydrate, or ferric chloride solution.
- Wear chemical splash goggles, suitable gloves, and a lab coat before handling.
- Use clean, dry dispensing tools and take only the quantity required by the approved method.
- Avoid dust, mist, splashes, skin contact, eye contact, and contamination of clothing.
- Dissolve or dilute only as specified by the authorised procedure; add slowly and control heat release if applicable.
- Label prepared solutions with name, concentration, date, preparer, hydrate form, and hazard information.
- Collect residues and contaminated material according to institutional chemical-waste rules.
Safety note: Ferric chloride can be corrosive or irritating depending on supplied form and concentration. Students should use it only under trained teacher or laboratory-technician supervision with PPE and the current SDS available.
Care & Maintenance
- Store tightly closed in a dry, labelled, compatible chemical-storage area.
- Keep away from moisture, metals, food items, incompatible chemicals, and unauthorised users.
- Use clean dispensing tools to prevent contamination, caking, leakage, or solution carry-back.
- Discard contaminated, unlabelled, leaking, or expired stock through approved laboratory procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ferric Chloride Analytical Reagent used for?
Ferric Chloride Analytical Reagent is used for authorised chemistry demonstrations, solution preparation, and chemical-analysis procedures where iron(III) chloride is specifically required.
What is the CAS number of ferric chloride?
Anhydrous ferric chloride is listed as CAS 7705-08-0. Ferric chloride hexahydrate is listed as CAS 10025-77-1, so the supplied form should be confirmed before ordering.
What is the formula of ferric chloride?
The formula of anhydrous ferric chloride is FeCl3. The hexahydrate form is FeCl3·6H2O.
Why does hydrate form matter?
Hydrate form affects molecular weight, weighing calculations, and solution concentration. A hexahydrate reagent requires different calculation than an anhydrous material.
Is ferric chloride suitable for school laboratories?
Yes, it can be used in supervised school and college laboratories when teachers or technicians control PPE, weighing or dispensing, solution preparation, labelling, storage, and disposal.
What documents should be confirmed before ordering?
Confirm the SDS, COA, grade, assay, hydrate form, pack size, batch number, expiry or retest date, label details, and final packaging before ordering.
