Ferric chloride – 40%, 42%

Ferric Chloride – High-Purity Options for Industrial Use

Ferric chloride is a chemical used in many industries. It comes in 40% and 42% solutions and works well for things like water treatment, electronics, and metal processing. We supply high-quality ferric chloride that’s reliable for both regular and heavy-duty work.

What is it?

Ferric chloride (FeCl₃) is an inorganic compound. In liquid form, it’s dark brown or yellowish. People also call it Iron(III) chloride. It dissolves easily in water and produces hydrochloric acid. It’s known for strong oxidizing properties and is used in many industrial jobs.

Concentration Options

Ferric Chloride 40% Solution

The 40% solution is common in:

  • Water treatment plants, to help remove impurities

  • PCB (printed circuit board) manufacturing, for etching

  • Industrial wastewater treatment, to remove heavy metals

Key Details:

  • Colour: Dark brown liquid

  • Smell: Slightly acidic

  • Looks: Clear or murky, depends on storage

This option is easy to handle and works well for regular use.

Ferric Chloride 42% Solution

The 42% solution is stronger and used when more power is needed, like:

  • Advanced PCB production, for quicker etching

  • Metal surface treatment, to reduce corrosion

  • Large-scale water purification, to improve clarity

Key Details:

  • Colour: Dark brown liquid

  • Smell: Stronger acidic smell

  • Looks: Thicker than 40%

It’s good for heavy-duty tasks and can cut down on how much you need to use.
