IRON(III) CHLORIDE Chemical Compatibility

Iron(III) chloride, also known as ferric chloride, is a dark brown crystalline solid with the chemical formula FeCl₃. It is used in various industrial applications, including water treatment, wastewater treatment, and as a coagulant in the production of drinking water. Iron(III) chloride is also employed in the etching of copper in printed circuit boards, as a catalyst in organic synthesis, and in the production of other iron compounds. Despite its utility, it is corrosive and can cause skin and eye irritation. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential to ensure safe usage.
