Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
off-white to light grey or light brown powder | [Description]
Iron (II) acetate is an off-white or light brown solid ionic compound of iron. It is highly soluble in water and it forms a light green tetrahydrate. Iron (II) acetate is manufactured from scrap iron and acetic acid, and it is used as a mordant by the dye industry. Ebonizing wood is one such process. It can also be made by the reaction of ferrous oxide or ferrous hydroxide with concentrated acetic acid 。. | [General Description]
Iron (II) acetate is a white or light brown solid ionic compound of iron. It is highly soluble in water and it forms a light green tetrahydrate. It is more nontoxic than iron pentacarbonyl and reactivity is better. |
