Potassium Chromate

Product Code : SCL-LC-12167

The Potassium Chromate Lab Reagent is a hazardous inorganic chromate chemical used in authorised chemistry laboratories for controlled analytical, qualitative and teaching procedures. It is intended for trained laboratory users only and must be handled with verified SDS, PPE, compliant storage and institutional chemical-safety controls.

Product Description

Potassium Chromate from Science Lab Supplies is positioned as a laboratory chemical for schools with authorised chemistry labs, colleges, universities, analytical laboratories, research laboratories, chemical stockrooms and procurement buyers. The supplied product name confirms the chemical identity, but pack size, assay, grade, batch number, SDS and Certificate of Analysis must be verified before final catalogue publication.

Potassium chromate has formula K₂CrO₄ and CAS number 7789-00-6. It is a hexavalent chromium compound and must be treated as a restricted hazardous laboratory reagent. It is not suitable for unsupervised student handling or general classroom demonstrations.

Key Features

• Defined chemical identity: potassium chromate, K₂CrO₄, CAS 7789-00-6.
• Chromate reagent: suitable only for authorised laboratory procedures where potassium chromate is specified.
• Pack size to confirm: bottle quantity must be verified before publishing.
• Grade to confirm: do not claim LR, AR, ACS or analytical grade without documentation.
• Hazard-controlled use: requires trained handling, PPE, SDS review and controlled storage.
• Educational and analytical relevance: supports supervised chemistry work involving chromate chemistry.
• Documentation required: SDS, COA, batch number, label details and regulatory classification should be confirmed before supply.

How to Use the Potassium Chromate

1. Verify the label, CAS number, grade, batch number, expiry date and container condition before use.
2. Read the current Safety Data Sheet and institutional chemical-hygiene procedure.
3. Use only inside an approved laboratory area with required PPE and exposure controls.
4. Dispense only the required amount using clean, compatible tools.
5. Avoid dust generation, inhalation, skin contact and eye contact.
6. Close the container immediately after dispensing.
7. Segregate waste as hazardous chromium-containing chemical waste according to local rules.

Safety note: Potassium chromate is a hazardous hexavalent chromium compound. Do not use it without trained supervision, SDS review, chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection and compliant waste handling. Keep away from incompatible chemicals, food areas, drains and unauthorised users.

Care & Maintenance

• Store in a tightly closed, clearly labelled container in a controlled chemical storage area.
• Keep dry and segregated from incompatible substances, especially reducing agents and combustible materials.
• Use secondary containment where required by institutional policy.
• Do not use if the container is damaged, leaking, unlabelled, contaminated or beyond verified shelf life.
