Sodium Ferrocyanide Decahydrate, with the chemical formula Na4[Fe(CN)6]·10H2O, is a fascinating coordination compound whose properties are key to its widespread industrial use. The central iron atom is in the +2 oxidation state, complexed by six cyanide ligands, forming the stable ferrocyanide anion, [Fe(CN)6]4-. This inherent stability is the reason behind its significantly lower toxicity compared to simple cyanide salts, a crucial aspect for its application as a food additive and anticaking agent. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides this compound with guaranteed purity for various chemical manufacturing processes.

The anticaking property of Sodium Ferrocyanide Decahydrate in salt is a result of its ability to modify crystal growth. By interacting with the salt crystals, it disrupts the formation of the larger, interlocked structures that lead to caking, thus maintaining a free-flowing powder. This is a critical function for table salt and industrial salts, ensuring usability and ease of handling. The purchase of sodium ferrocyanide from our company ensures you receive a product optimized for this function.

In pigment production, the reaction of Sodium Ferrocyanide Decahydrate with iron(III) salts is foundational to creating Prussian blue, a pigment with a distinctive and intense blue color. This reaction, where the ferrocyanide ion ([Fe(CN)6]4-) reacts with Fe(III) ions, is a classic example of coordination chemistry in action. The resulting complex, Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3, is insoluble and provides a stable, vibrant color. As a supplier in China, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers high-grade sodium ferrocyanide essential for these pigment synthesis reactions, supporting the needs of the paints, inks, and coatings industries. We are dedicated to providing quality chemical solutions and competitive pricing for your manufacturing requirements.
