Potassium Thiocyanate Synonyms: potassium Isothiocyanate, Thiocyanice Acide, Potassium Salt Molecular Formula: KSCN Molecular Weight: 97.18 Specifications : LFPTSO2 Potassium thiocyanate KSCN Items Excellent First Grade Aqueous Solution50% Assay,%,min 99.0 98.0 97.0 PH Value (5%solution) 6-8 6-8 6-8 Solution Appearance Clearity clearity clearity Water insolubles%,≦ 0.005 0.005 0.0005 Chloride,%,≦ 0.01 0.012 0.015 Sulfate,%,≦ 0.005 0.01 0.01 Heavy Metal(Pb),%,≦ 0.0005 0.0005 0.0005 Iron(Fe),%,≦ 0.0001 0.0002 0.0003 Lossing on drying,%,≦ 1.0 1.5 1.8 Characteristic:colorless monoclinic system crystal.The melting point is approximately 172℃.It is easily dissolved in the water and reduces the temperature due to massive heat absorption.It also can be dissolved in the alcohol and?? acetone.Under the low temperature, it can crystallize into?? half-hydrate(KSCN.0.5H2O).It is steady under the temperature of 29-6.8℃ and it becomes blue when the calores cense degree is about 430℃,but it can become colorless again when it is cold.It will decompose when the temperature rises to 500℃.It produces blood-red ferric rhodante with molysite and does not react with ferric .It is easily deliquesced so it should be sealed for storage. Application:General:Mainly used in sectors of pharmaceuticals,pesticede,textile,electroplanting,phogography etc Raw material for the prodution of a number of a number of pharmaceutical products. Raw material for the production of a number of herbicides and fungicides and pesticides Photographic industry for tonong ,sensibilisation Packing:25kg paper bags with polyethylene lining.
