Introduction | potassium perrhenate is a white crystalline powder with a density of 4.89g/cm3 and a melting point of 550 ℃, boiling point 1360~1370 ℃. Refractive index 1.643, slightly soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol. The solubility varies greatly with temperature. The solubility is 0.36g at 0 °c and 3.3g at 50 °c. If KCl or other potassium salts are added, the solubility is less. |
Application | potassium perrhenate can be used as a strong oxidant, and also used in spectral analysis, tungsten cathode coating color film and as a catalyst. Potassium perrhenate is used as a strong oxidant for the synthesis of technetium and rhenium organometallic radiopharmaceuticals. |
Use | for the preparation of pure rhenium oxidant. Spectral analysis. Preparation of rhenium compounds. |
production method | potassium hydroxide or potassium carbonate is formed by dissolving perrhenium acid. Take 500g of the perrhenium acid or heptanium oxide, dissolve in 500ml of water, filter, boil the filtrate, and neutralize with 5% potassium hydroxide (neutral red as an indicator) with constant stirring to precipitate a large number of white crystals. Cooling, Suction filtration crystallization, drying, to obtain the finished product. The mother liquor can be used to dissolve the high rhenium acid (or seven rhenium oxide) in the next batch of synthesis, or concentrated treatment. |
