Cobalt Chloride By Arth Minerals & Chemicals

Owing to the efforts of our qualified professionals, we have been constantly involved in exporting, manufacturing and supplying of Cobalt Chloride in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, India. Cobalt(II) chloride is an inorganic compound of cobalt and chloride, with the formula CoCl2. It is usually supplied as the hexahydrate CoCl26H2O, which is one of the most commonly used cobalt compounds in the laboratory.[1] The hexahydrate is deep purple in color, whereas the anhydrous form is sky blue. Because of the ease of the hydration/dehydration reaction, and the resulting color change, cobalt chloride is used as an indicator for water in desiccants. Niche uses include its role in organic synthesis and electroplating objects with cobalt metal. Cobalt(II) chloride gives a blue-green color in a flame.
