Product Description
Potassium dichromate solution is a versatile laboratory reagent widely used in titrations, oxidation-reduction reactions, and analytical chemistry. This Merck-certified solution (1.09118.1000) ensures consistent performance with a standardized concentration, making it ideal for educational institutions, research labs, and industrial applications.
Whether you’re a student conducting experiments or a researcher validating methods, this 1L solution offers reliability and precision. Its deep orange-red color serves as a visual indicator in redox titrations, while its stability guarantees long shelf life when stored properly.
At eqipped, we prioritize quality and authenticity. This potassium dichromate solution is sourced directly from Merck, ensuring adherence to global lab standards. Perfect for academic projects, quality control testing, or routine lab procedures.
Key Applications
This solution is commonly used in:
- Volumetric analysis (titration of iron, sulfite, and other reducing agents)
- Chromium plating and metal finishing processes
- Organic synthesis as an oxidizing agent
- Environmental testing for COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) analysis
Safety and Handling
Risk Note: Potassium dichromate is a strong oxidizer and toxic if ingested or inhaled. Always wear appropriate PPE (gloves, goggles, lab coat) and handle in a well-ventilated area. Dispose of waste according to local regulations.
Store in a cool, dry place away from organic materials and reducing agents. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent contamination.
Why This Solution Stands Out
Unlike generic alternatives, Merck’s potassium dichromate solution undergoes rigorous quality checks. The 1L pack size is optimal for frequent lab use, reducing the need for frequent reorders. Its pre-dissolved form saves preparation time while maintaining accuracy.

FAQs
What is the concentration of this potassium dichromate solution?
The solution is pre-standardized by Merck, typically at 0.1N or 0.0167M. Refer to the certificate of analysis for exact specifications.
Can this be used for school lab experiments?
Yes, but only under supervised conditions due to its toxic and corrosive nature. Always follow institutional safety protocols.
How should I store leftover solution?
Keep it in the original amber bottle, tightly sealed, at room temperature. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or heat sources.
Is this solution suitable for COD testing?
Absolutely. It’s a standard reagent for COD analysis in wastewater treatment and environmental monitoring.
Does eqipped offer discounts for educational institutions?
Yes, we provide special pricing for schools, colleges, and research organizations. Contact our team for details.
