Product Code : SCL-LC-12181
The Potassium Ferricyanide Reagent is an inorganic coordination compound used in authorised chemistry laboratories for controlled redox, qualitative analysis, iron-detection and analytical teaching procedures. It is suitable for trained laboratory users, colleges, universities, analytical labs, chemical stockrooms, distributors and procurement buyers requiring documented reagent supply.
Product Description
Potassium Ferricyanide from Science Lab Supplies is positioned as a laboratory chemical for controlled institutional use. The supplied product name confirms the chemical identity, but pack size, assay, grade, hydrate form, batch number, SDS and Certificate of Analysis must be verified before final catalogue publication.
Potassium ferricyanide is also known as potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) or red prussiate. It has formula K3[Fe(CN)6] and is used where a ferricyanide redox reagent or iron-complex reagent is specified. It must not be mixed with acids or used in unauthorised demonstrations.
Key Features
- Defined chemical identity: potassium ferricyanide, K3[Fe(CN)6], CAS 13746-66-2.
- Redox reagent function: suitable for authorised analytical and teaching procedures where ferricyanide is specified.
- Pack size to confirm: bottle quantity or net weight must be verified before publishing.
- Grade to confirm: do not claim LR, AR, ACS or analytical grade without documentation.
- Form to confirm: crystal, powder or granular form must be checked from final label and COA.
- SDS-led handling: requires trained use, PPE, label review and controlled chemical storage.
- Compatibility control: keep away from acids, strong heat and incompatible chemicals.

How to Use the Potassium Ferricyanide
- Verify the label, CAS number, grade, batch number, expiry date and container condition before use.
- Read the current Safety Data Sheet and institutional chemical-hygiene procedure.
- Wear suitable PPE, including gloves, eye protection and a lab coat.
- Use clean, dry tools to dispense only the required quantity.
- Prepare solutions only according to the approved laboratory method.
- Avoid dust generation, inhalation, ingestion, skin contact and eye contact.
- Keep the reagent away from acids and incompatible chemicals.
- Collect residues and contaminated materials according to laboratory waste rules.
Safety note: Potassium ferricyanide must not be acidified or heated with acids because hazardous decomposition products may form. Use only by trained personnel with SDS-approved controls. Do not use for food, medical, photographic hobby processing or unauthorised demonstrations.
Care & Maintenance
- Store in a tightly closed, clearly labelled container in a dry chemical-storage area.
- Protect from moisture, contamination, heat, acids and incompatible substances.
- Use clean, dry spatulas to prevent cross-contamination.
- Do not use if the container is damaged, unlabelled, contaminated, clumped or beyond verified shelf life.
