Cupric Chloride Anhydrous is a highly reactive, brownish-yellow crystalline solid formed by dehydrating hydrated forms. It acts as a potent Lewis acid catalyst in organic transformations and serves as a key precursor in synthesizing copper-based nanomaterials. Industrially, it’s produced by direct chlorination of copper metal or thermal dehydration of the dihydrate.
1.Product Introduction
Cupric Chloride Anhydrous is a highly reactive, brownish-yellow crystalline solid formed by dehydrating hydrated forms. It acts as a potent Lewis acid catalyst in organic transformations and serves as a key precursor in synthesizing copper-based nanomaterials. Industrially, it’s produced by direct chlorination of copper metal or thermal dehydration of the dihydrate. Its hygroscopic nature demands moisture-free storage, as rapid hydration alters its properties. Notably, it exhibits strong oxidizing capabilities, enabling use in controlled combustion reactions and as an etching agent in microfabrication. Environmental persistence necessitates careful handling due to potential ecotoxicity.

3.Product Feature And Application
Cupric Chloride Anhydrous serves as a highly sensitive moisture indicator in desiccant systems, undergoing visible color shifts upon hydration. It catalyzes the synthesis of conductive polymers like polyaniline, enabling advanced electronic materials. In gas purification, it selectively removes impurities like hydrogen sulfide from industrial streams. Its strong oxidizing power facilitates controlled chlorination in pharmaceutical intermediates synthesis. Additionally, it acts as a Lewis acid catalyst for dehydration reactions in organic synthesis, specifically converting alcohols to alkenes under anhydrous conditions. These applications leverage its unique reactivity and hygroscopic properties in specialized industrial and chemical processes.
4.Product Details

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
