Potassium Dichromate 500gm – High-Purity Analytical & Laboratory Reagent
Product Description
Potassium Dichromate 500gm (K₂Cr₂O₇) is an inorganic chemical compound commonly used as an oxidizing agent in analytical chemistry, laboratory research, and selected industrial applications. It typically appears as bright orange-red crystals and is valued for its well-defined chemical properties and use in quantitative analysis.
Potassium Dichromate is widely used in redox titrations, analytical testing, and the preparation of laboratory reagents. It is also used in selected metal-treatment, dyeing, and photographic processes. Its applications require appropriate laboratory procedures and strict safety precautions because it contains hexavalent chromium (Cr VI).
