CAS 13478-10-9: Ferrous chloride tetrahydrate

Applications Iron(II) Chloride is used in preparation of a variety of organically templated iron phosphates. It also serves as a reducing flocculating agent in wastewater treatment. It is the precursor to hydrated iron(III) oxides that are magnetic pigments. Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package References Lii, K., et al.: Chem. Mater., 10, 2599 (1998); Wildermuth, E., et al.: Ullmann’s Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry Wiley-VCH, Wienheim (2005)

Iron(II) chloride tetrahydrate is used as a reducing agent in metallurgy, in pharmaceutical preparations, as a mordant in dyeing and in sewage treatment. Ferrous chloride has a kind of niche application. During the laboratory synthesis of iron complexes, ferrous chloride acts as a reducing flocculating agent in waste water treatment, particularly for wastes containing chromate. It is the precursor to hydrated iron(III) oxides that are magnetic pigments. Ferrous chloride is employed as a reducing agent in many organic synthesis reactions.

Iron chloride tetrahydrate is a compound of iron and chloride. It has been shown to be an effective treatment against pellicles and cell cytoplasm in electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Iron chloride tetrahydrate can also be used to treat traumatic injuries by increasing the rate of wound healing, as seen in fibroblast cells. Iron chloride tetrahydrate has shown magnetic properties that can be used for superparamagnetic iron-based MRI contrast agents and magnetic particles with a variety of applications, including chemical interactions with the cell membrane. The chemical interactions between the compound and the cell membrane may also lead to hybridization studies.
