1.Product Introduction
Cupric chloride is a versatile inorganic compound primarily existing as a brownish-yellow hygroscopic solid. It readily absorbs moisture, forming hydrates like the dihydrate. Characterized by its Lewis acidity and strong oxidizing properties, it participates in diverse redox reactions. Widely employed as a catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly in chlorination and oxidation processes, it also serves as a precursor for copper nanoparticles and pigments. Its solubility in water and various organic solvents enhances its utility in chemical manufacturing, textile dyeing, and as a reagent in analytical chemistry for detecting specific ions and compounds.

3.Product Feature And Application
Cupric chloride is crucial in pyrotechnics for producing vivid blue and green flames. It serves as an etchant for printed circuit boards (PCBs), selectively removing copper to create conductive pathways. In wood preservation, it functions as a fungicide, protecting timber from decay. Additionally, it acts as a toning agent in photography, altering image hues. Its ability to form complexes enables metal ion detection in environmental monitoring, while its oxidizing power aids in wastewater treatment for pollutant degradation. These niche applications leverage its distinct chemical behavior beyond common catalytic or synthetic roles.
4.Product Details
Distinctive color transition between hydrated and anhydrous forms indicates moisture content.
5.Product Qualification
We have received numerous government awards in China for our outstanding products and integrity in business operations. For exports, we hold REACH certification for multiple products, meeting EU import requirements for copper salt products. We are certified under the ISO 9001 Quality Management System and comply with RoHS standards. We can provide Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and all necessary documentation for every product.
6.Deliver,Shipping And Serving
In terms of packaging, we currently have two packaging options: bags and drums, their standard is 25kg. each pallet can load a total of 1 ton of goods. Some of the products will be in the ordinary bag on the basis of increasing the ton bag for uniform packaging, in the protection of the product at the same time to ensure the beauty of the goods. For some special products or special needs of customers, we can ensure the sealing and safety of the products by the form of barrel.
7.FAQ
What are the delivery terms available?
Generally, we commonly use FOB and CIF for delivery. If the customer has other delivery requirements, we can also discuss and negotiate.
