Potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) trihydrate is widely used in anticaking agent for both road and table salt. It is involved in the purification of tin and separation of copper from molybdenum ores. It plays a vital role in the in production of wine and citric acid. In analytical chemistry, it is used to determine the concentration of potassium permanganate. It is in combination with potassium ferricyanide and phosphate buffered solution acts as buffer for beta-galatosidase. Further, it is used as fertilizers for plants.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
