<p>I DESPERATELY NEED THIS INFO. Does anyone know the industrial uses of ferric thiocyanate???? I need this info ASAP. I cant find it anywhere on the net.</p>
<p>Try perusing this site <a href="http://www.chemetrics.com%5B/url%5D">www.chemetrics.com</a>. </p>
<p>I was able to find this on it:</p>
<p>Hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent with avariety of uses. Applications include the treating of industrial effluents and domestic waste and serving as a disinfectant in aseptic packaging.</p>
<p>The Ferric Thiocyanate Method</p>
<p>Reference: D. F. Boltz and J. A. Howell, eds.,
Colorimetric Determination of Nonmetals, 2nd.ed.,
Vol. 8, p. 304 (1978).
The ferric thiocyanate method consists of ammonium thiocyanate and ferrous iron in acid solution. Hydrogen peroxide oxidizes ferrous iron to the ferricstate, resulting in the formation of a red thiocyanate
complex. Chlorine will not interfere with this method. Ferric iron will interfere. Results are expressed as ppm(mg/L) H2O2</p>
<p>Thanks. Maybe I can use that info somewhere.
Unfortunately, I shouldda been more specific. Can anyone give me uses of the potassium thiocyanate-ferric nitrate reaction?</p>
