Ferric ammonium oxalate Usage And Synthesis

Description

Ferric ammonium oxalate is a chemical compound. It is mostly used for the manufacture of blueprint paper .

Chemical Properties

Green crystals. Soluble in water and alcohol; sensitive to light.

Chemical Properties

Ferric ammonium oxalate is a green crystalline, solid with a granular or salt-like appearance. Color depends on level of iron present

Uses

In photography, blueprints; in coloring of Al and Al alloys.

Hazard

Irritant to skin and mucous membranes.

Safety Profile

An eye and skin irritant. Whenheated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NH3. Seealso OXALATES.

Potential Exposure

Ferric ammonium oxalate is used in photography and making blueprints

First aid

If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medicalfacility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and inducevomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit. Thesymptoms of metal fume fever may be delayed for 4-12 hfollowing exposure: it may last less than 36 h.Note to physician: For severe poisoning do not use BAL[British Anti-Lewisite, dimercaprol, dithiopropanol(C3H8OS2)] as it is contraindicated or ineffective in poisoning from iron.

storage

Color Code—Green: General storage may be used.Prior to working with this chemical you should be trained on its proper handling and storage. Store in tightly closedcontainers in a cool, well-ventilated area away from light.Shipping: Not a regulated chemical.

Shipping

UN3288 Toxic solids, inorganic, n.o.s., Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical Name Required

Incompatibilities

Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides. Strong oxidizers may cause release of toxic phosphorus oxides. Organophosphates, in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides, may form highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas. Keep away from alkaline materials.
