Description

Zinc(II) chloride hydrate is used as a soldering flux and metal etchant. It is also employed in preserving anatomical specimens, wood preservatives, deodorant, disinfecting and embalming materials. It is employed as a mordant in printing and dyeing materials, and in the vulcanizing processes of fiber and rubber. It forms a complex with Ruhemann’s purple, which obtained by reacting ninhydrin with amino acids and amines is used in fingerprint detection.
