FAQs
1.
What is the shelf life of Barium Hydroxide Octahydrate 98% AR?
When stored in a tightly sealed container away from moisture and carbon dioxide, it remains stable for up to 2 years. 2.
Is this compound compatible with glassware?
Yes, but prolonged exposure to glass may cause etching due to its alkaline nature. Use plastic or borosilicate glass containers for long-term storage. 3.
Can this be used as a substitute for sodium hydroxide?
While both are strong bases, Barium Hydroxide has lower solubility and forms insoluble barium salts, limiting its interchangeability in some applications. 4.
What precautions should be taken during handling?
Wear gloves, goggles, and a lab coat to avoid skin and eye contact. Work in a well-ventilated area or fume hood. 5.
Does this product contain any additives or stabilizers?
No, it is 98% pure Barium Hydroxide Octahydrate without additional additives.
