Understanding Rhenium(VI) Oxide: Properties, Safety, and Handling at NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD.
Rhenium(VI) Oxide, identified by CAS number 1314-28-9, is a chemical compound that demands careful consideration regarding its properties, safety, and handling. At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we are dedicated to ensuring our clients have comprehensive information to utilize this valuable material effectively and safely. Understanding its characteristics is crucial for its successful application in catalysis, advanced materials, and various industrial processes.
Physically, Rhenium(VI) Oxide typically appears as a violet powder. It has a high melting point, around 400°C with decomposition, and is notably insoluble in water. This low solubility is advantageous in applications where moisture resistance is a requirement. The compound is sensitive to moisture, which necessitates proper storage conditions to maintain its integrity. The chemical properties of ReO3 also classify it as an oxidizing agent and a corrosive substance, highlighting the need for strict safety protocols.
Safety is paramount when working with Rhenium(VI) Oxide. Due to its corrosive nature, direct contact with skin and eyes should be strictly avoided. It can cause severe burns to the skin and serious eye damage. Inhalation of dust can lead to respiratory tract irritation. Therefore, appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential. This includes chemical-resistant gloves (such as nitrile or neoprene), safety goggles with side shields or a full face shield, and protective clothing. In environments where dust generation is possible, a NIOSH-approved respirator is recommended.
Handling Rhenium(VI) Oxide requires an inert atmosphere and controlled conditions to prevent moisture absorption and potential reactions with incompatible materials. It should be stored in tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry place, away from combustible materials, reducing agents, organic materials, and metal powders. Proper ventilation, such as the use of a chemical fume hood, is crucial during handling to minimize exposure to airborne particles.
