Frequently Asked Questions
Ferric chloride acts as a powerful flocculant in industrial wastewater treatment, helping to clarify effluents by removing suspended impurities and making the water transparent.
It should be stored in a cool, dry place in airtight containers. Avoid exposure to rain and air for more than 30 seconds to prevent deliquescence due to its hygroscopic nature.
Yes, it is widely used in the metallurgical and printing industries as a corrosive agent for electronic printed circuit boards and photogravure plates.
Liquid options include specialized tank cars and polyethylene plastic drums in specifications of 25Kg, 50Kg, 100Kg, and 200Kg.
Yes, Ferric Chloride is highly corrosive to metals, which is why it is used as an etchant in hardware and electronics manufacturing.
The minimum order quantity is 120' FCL, shipped from Qingdao Port, China.
