Barium Hydroxide

Product Code : SCL-LC-12269

The Barium Hydroxide lab chemical is an inorganic alkaline reagent used for supervised chemistry experiments involving strong bases, barium salts, titration work, and controlled qualitative demonstrations. It is suitable for colleges, trained chemistry laboratories, science departments, institutional tenders, distributors, and educational procurement buyers.

Product Description

Barium Hydroxide from Science Lab Supplies is intended for controlled institutional laboratory use where a barium hydroxide reagent is required. The exact hydrate form, grade, assay, pack size, physical form, batch number, shelf life, SDS, COA, and transport documents must be confirmed before publication or quotation.

Barium hydroxide is commonly represented as Ba(OH)₂. It may be supplied as anhydrous barium hydroxide, monohydrate, octahydrate, solution, or another documented form, so the final label and COA must be checked before listing formula weight or assay values. This is a laboratory chemical listing, not a consumer or unrestricted-use material.

Key Features

• Inorganic base reagent: suitable for supervised chemistry teaching and approved laboratory procedures.
• Formula reference: barium hydroxide is commonly represented as Ba(OH)₂.
• Hydrate verification required: molecular weight and CAS information may vary by supplied hydrate form.
• Titration teaching support: can be used in approved acid-base and weak-acid titration demonstrations.
• Barium salt chemistry: supports controlled lessons on alkaline earth metal compounds and ionic reactions.
• Documentation-led procurement: SDS, COA, assay, batch number, and shelf-life details should be verified before use.
• Hazard-controlled handling: requires PPE, ventilation, compatible storage, and trained supervision.

How to Use the Barium Hydroxide

1. Read the current SDS, product label, and institutional risk assessment before use.
2. Allow only trained laboratory personnel to handle the chemical.
3. Wear suitable PPE, including lab coat, chemical-resistant gloves, and eye or face protection.
4. Work in a ventilated area or fume hood if dust or aerosols may be generated.
5. Use only the minimum quantity required by the approved laboratory procedure.
6. Add to solutions only as directed by the SOP, using compatible glassware and controlled technique.
7. Label prepared solutions with chemical name, concentration, hazards, and preparation date.
8. Dispose of residues through approved hazardous-chemical waste procedures.

Safety note: Barium Hydroxide must be handled as a hazardous alkaline laboratory chemical. Do not ingest, inhale dust, contact skin or eyes, mix with unknown chemicals, neutralise casually, or issue for unsupervised student handling.

Care & Maintenance

• Store tightly closed in the original container in a cool, dry, ventilated chemical-storage area.
• Keep away from acids, incompatible metals, unlabelled containers, food, and unauthorized users.
• Use clean, dry, compatible tools and avoid returning unused material to the original pack.
• Maintain SDS, COA, batch number, hydrate form, pack size, and shelf-life records for audit control.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Barium Hydroxide used for in a laboratory?

Barium Hydroxide is used as an inorganic base reagent for supervised chemistry teaching, acid-base demonstrations, titration work, and approved barium salt experiments.

What is the formula of Barium Hydroxide?

Barium hydroxide is commonly written as Ba(OH)₂. The hydrate form must be confirmed because anhydrous, monohydrate, and octahydrate forms have different formula weights.

Is Barium Hydroxide hazardous?

Yes. Barium Hydroxide may be corrosive and harmful if swallowed or inhaled. It requires SDS-based handling, PPE, ventilation, and trained supervision.

What grade is supplied?

The grade is not confirmed. Add LR, AR, ACS, analytical, technical, assay, or purity details only after verifying the product label, COA, or datasheet.

Is Barium Hydroxide suitable for school chemistry labs?

It is suitable only where the institution permits barium hydroxide handling and trained staff supervise the procedure. It should not be issued for unsupervised student handling.

Does it include SDS or COA?

SDS and COA availability must be confirmed for the final supply. These documents should be requested before procurement, storage, transport, or classroom use.
