COBALT ACETATE - Introduction
cobalt acetate, chemical formula Co(CH3COO)2 · 4H2O, is a cobalt (II) salt compound containing water of crystallization. The following is a description of the nature, use, formulation and safety information of the cobalt acetate:
Nature:
1. Appearance: cobalt acetate is a red crystalline or powdery substance.
2. Solubility: cobalt acetate can be fully dissolved in water.
3. Chemical properties: cobalt acetate is a stable compound that can react with oxygen to generate Anhydrous cobalt acetate (II).
Use:
1. Catalyst: cobalt acetate is used as a catalyst in some organic synthesis reactions, such as hydrogenation reactions and aldehyde alkenylation reactions.
2. Pigment: because of its bright red color, cobalt acetate is often used as pigment, widely used in oil painting, ceramics and glass and other fields.
Preparation Method:
cobalt acetate can be obtained by reacting acetic acid with cobalt (II) salt. A common method of preparation is to react acetic acid with cobalt oxide and add sufficient water of crystallization.
Safety Information:
1. cobalt acetate has low acute toxicity to the human body, but long-term contact and inhalation should be avoided.
2. Use should wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and protective glasses.
3. Avoid contact of cobalt acetate with strong oxidants and strong acids to prevent dangerous reactions.
4. During storage and handling, the storage container should be kept sealed and stored in a dry and well-ventilated place, away from fire and heat sources.
5. In the use and disposal, should comply with the relevant safety procedures and environmental protection regulations.
