Description

Description Ruthenium(III) chloride is the chemical compound with the formula RuCl3. “Ruthenium(III) chloride” more commonly refers to the hydrate RuCl3·xH₂O. Both the anhydrous and hydrated species are dark brown or black solids. The hydrate, with a varying proportion of water of crystallization, often approximating to a trihydrate, is a commonly used starting material in ruthenium chemistry.

Features And Benefits

Features And Benefits Chloride materials can be decomposed by electrolysis to chlorine gas and the metal. They are formed through various chlorination processes whereby at least one chlorine anion (Cl-) is covalently bonded to the relevant metal or cation. Ultra high purity and proprietary formulations can be prepared. The chloride ion controls fluid equilibrium and pH levels in metabolic systems. They can form either inorganic or organic compounds. Ruthenium(III) Chloride Hydrate is generally immediately available in most volumes.

Application

Application Ruthenium(III) Chloride Hydrate is a highly insoluble thermally stable Ruthenium source suitable for glass, optic and ceramic applications. Chloride compounds can conduct electricity when fused or dissolved in water.
