Ferrous phosphate is a chemical substance with the chemical formula Fe3H16O16P2. The following is an introduction to the nature, use, preparation and safety information of ferrous phosphate:
Nature:
-Ferrous phosphate is white crystalline powder, odorless.
-It is stable at room temperature, but it will decompose into ferrous oxide and vapor at high temperature.
-Ferrous phosphate is soluble in water and acidic in aqueous solution.
Use:
-Ferrous phosphate is often used as a fertilizer to provide the iron needed by plants. During the growth of crops and flowers, ferrous phosphate can improve the green degree of leaves and the health of plants.
-It can also be used as a water treatment agent for rust prevention and dirt removal.
-Ferrous phosphate is also used to prepare other iron compounds and as a catalyst for some chemical reactions.
Preparation Method:
-The preparation method of ferrous phosphate is mainly obtained by reacting ferrous salt and phosphoric acid.
-A common preparation method is to react ferrous (II) salt (such as ferrous sulfate) with phosphoric acid to form ferrous phosphate precipitate, which is then filtered and dried.
Safety Information:
-Ferrous phosphate can generally be regarded as a relatively low-toxic substance, but it is still necessary to pay attention to safe operation.
-When handling ferrous phosphate, it is recommended to wear appropriate protective gloves and glasses to avoid contact and inhalation.
-Avoid swallowing or direct contact with ferrous phosphate to avoid discomfort.
-Before use, make sure that ferrous phosphate does not react dangerously with other compounds, especially organics.
-When storing ferrous phosphate, keep it in a dry, closed container, away from fire and oxidizing agents.
