Barium Hydroxide

Sales Barium Hydroxide

Barium hydroxide, a chemical compound with the chemical formula Ba(OH)2, is white solid substance, soluble in water, the solution is called barite water, strong alkaline. Barium Hydroxide has another name, namely: caustic barite, barium hydrate. The monohydrate (x = 1), known as baryta or baryta-water, is one of the principal compounds of barium. This white granular monohydrate is the usual commercial form.
Barium Hydroxide Octahydrate, as a highly water insoluble crystalline Barium source, is an inorganic chemical compound that is one of the most dangerous chemicals used in the laboratory. Ba(OH)2.8H2O is a colorless crystal at room temperature. It has a density of 2.18g / cm3, water soluble and acid, toxic, can cause damage to the nervous system and digestive system. Ba(OH)2.8H2O is corrosive, may cause burns to eye and skin. It may cause digestive tract irratation if swallowed.
Example Reactions:
• Ba(OH)2.8H2O + 2NH4SCN = Ba(SCN)2 + 10H2O + 2NH3
