SODIUM DICHROMATE - Sodium Dichromate 55#

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Sodium dichromate is a chemical compound composed of sodium ions and dichromate ions, recognized for its vibrant orange crystalline structure. This compound is a powerful oxidizing agent and is extensively utilized in various industrial applications, such as in the production of pigments, inks, and dyes. Its oxidizing properties are also employed in the manufacturing of certain chemicals, as well as in the treatment of surfaces for corrosion resistance. However, sodium dichromate is highly toxic and carcinogenic, posing severe health hazards upon exposure through inhalation, ingestion, or contact with the skin, demanding stringent safety measures in handling, storage, and disposal to prevent environmental and health risks. Due to its adverse health effects, its use is being increasingly restricted or replaced by alternative compounds in many applications.
