Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this Ferric Chloride anhydrous or hydrated?
This product is 99% AR grade anhydrous Ferric Chloride ($\text{FeCl}_3$), specifically processed to minimize moisture for water-sensitive catalytic applications.
2. How should Anhydrous Ferric Chloride be stored in the laboratory?
Because Anhydrous Ferric Chloride is highly hygroscopic, it should be kept tightly sealed in its original container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from moisture and direct sunlight.
3. Can central universities and government R&D labs procure this via GeM with GST invoices?
Yes, Apex Labs supplies all Oxford Lab Fine Chem products with itemized GST tax invoices for ITC compliance and supports direct bidding and institutional supply through the Government e-Marketplace (GeM) portal.
