Chromium hydroxide

Description:
Chromium hydroxide, with the CAS number 12626-43-6, is an inorganic compound characterized by its greenish color and its formula Cr(OH)3. It typically appears as a fine, amorphous powder and is insoluble in water, which makes it a useful material in various applications. Chromium hydroxide is primarily used in the production of chromium-based pigments, particularly in ceramics and paints, due to its stability and non-toxic nature compared to other chromium compounds. It can also serve as a precursor for other chromium compounds and is utilized in the treatment of wastewater to remove chromium ions. The compound exhibits amphoteric properties, meaning it can react with both acids and bases, forming soluble chromium salts or complex ions. Additionally, chromium hydroxide is of interest in the field of materials science for its potential applications in catalysis and as a coating material. Safety considerations are important, as chromium compounds can pose health risks, particularly in their hexavalent form, necessitating proper handling and disposal practices.
