Cupric Chloride Lab

Product Code : SCL-LC-12187

The Cupric Chloride Lab Reagent is an inorganic copper(II) chloride chemical used in authorised chemistry, analytical, teaching and research laboratories. It is suitable for trained laboratory users, schools with supervised labs, colleges, universities, analytical labs, chemical stockrooms, distributors and procurement buyers requiring documented reagent supply.

Product Description

Cupric Chloride from Science Lab Supplies is positioned as a chemistry laboratory reagent for controlled institutional use. The supplied product name confirms cupric chloride as the chemical identity, but hydrate form, pack size, assay, grade, batch number, SDS and Certificate of Analysis must be verified before final catalogue publication.

Cupric chloride is also known as copper(II) chloride or copper dichloride. The anhydrous form is represented as CuCl₂, while hydrated forms such as copper(II) chloride dihydrate include water of crystallisation. Because these forms differ in molecular weight, appearance, handling and labelling, final COA verification is required.

Key Features

• Defined chemical identity: cupric chloride, also known as copper(II) chloride.
• Copper salt reagent: suitable for approved chemistry and analytical procedures where CuCl₂ is specified.
• Hydrate form to confirm: anhydrous or hydrated form must be verified from the final label and COA.
• Pack size to confirm: bottle quantity or net weight must be checked before publication.
• Grade to confirm: do not claim LR, AR, ACS or analytical grade without documentation.
• Corrosive-handling controls: copper(II) chloride can irritate or damage eyes, skin and mucous membranes.
• Documentation required: SDS, COA, batch number, grade and regulatory classification should be confirmed before supply.

How to Use the Cupric Chloride

1. Verify the label, hydrate form, CAS number, grade, batch number and expiry date before use.
2. Read the current Safety Data Sheet and institutional laboratory procedure.
3. Wear suitable PPE, including chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection and a lab coat.
4. Use a clean, dry spatula, pipette or compatible transfer tool as applicable to the supplied form.
5. Dispense only the required quantity and avoid dust, splash or aerosol formation.
6. Dissolve or dilute only according to the approved laboratory method.
7. Close the container immediately after dispensing because some copper chloride forms may absorb moisture.
8. Dispose of residues as copper-containing laboratory waste according to local rules.

Safety note: Cupric Chloride Lab Reagent must be handled as a laboratory chemical. Avoid inhalation, ingestion, skin contact and eye contact. Use only with SDS-approved controls, ventilation, PPE and trained supervision.

Care & Maintenance

• Store in a tightly closed, clearly labelled container in a dry chemical-storage area.
• Protect from moisture, contamination, incompatible metals and strong bases.
• Use clean, compatible tools to prevent cross-contamination and corrosion.
• Do not use if the container is damaged, leaking, unlabelled, contaminated, caked or beyond verified shelf life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cupric Chloride Lab Reagent used for?

Cupric Chloride Lab Reagent is used in authorised chemistry laboratories for copper(II) chloride solution preparation, inorganic chemistry studies, analytical procedures and controlled teaching practicals.

What is the formula of cupric chloride?

Anhydrous cupric chloride is written as CuCl₂. Hydrated forms such as cupric chloride dihydrate must be confirmed from the final label and COA.

What is the CAS number of cupric chloride?

Anhydrous cupric chloride is commonly listed as CAS 7447-39-4. Hydrated forms may require hydrate-specific confirmation before final publication.

Is cupric chloride hazardous?

Yes. Cupric chloride should be handled as a hazardous laboratory chemical because it can irritate or damage eyes, skin and mucous membranes and may be harmful if inhaled or ingested.

What pack size is available?

The pack size is not confirmed. Add bottle quantity, bottle volume or net weight only after checking the final product specification.

Can cupric chloride be used in schools?

Yes, only in authorised school or college laboratories under trained supervision and according to the current SDS and institutional chemical-safety procedure.
