Barium Chloride Dehydrate AR 500g
Barium chloride dihydrate AR (Analytical Reagent) is a high-purity chemical primarily used in chemical laboratories as a specific test for sulfate ions.
It also serves as an industrial raw material for manufacturing other barium compounds and treating water. Barium Chloride Dehydrate AR 500g
Core Laboratory Uses
Sulphate Testing: It is the standard analytical reagent used to identify and quantify sulfate ions (\(SO_{4}^{2-}\)) in solution.
When added to a sample containing sulphates, it produces a distinct, insoluble white precipitate of barium sulphate:\(BaCl_2 + Na_2SO_4 \rightarrow BaSO_4 \downarrow + 2NaCl\)
Analytical Reagent (AR): The “AR” designation specifies high purity (often ACS or ISO grade), ensuring accurate results for gravimetric analysis, quantitative testing, and precise laboratory research.
Precipitation Reagent: It is widely used to precipitate various other soluble sulfates in chemical preparations and educational experiments.
Industrial & Manufacturing Applications
Water Treatment: Used to remove and purify harmful sulphate contamination from industrial wastewater and brine solutions.
Chemical Precursor: Acts as a foundational raw material for synthesising specialty chemicals and other barium compounds like barium carbonate, barium chromate, and barium fluoride.
Steel and Metal Treatment: Employed in heat-treating salt baths and for the case hardening of steel.
Additives and Pigments: Utilised in the formulation of lubricating oil additives, jet fuel additives, and the manufacturing of paints and pigments.
