Commercial Information
Storage & Shipping
Storage Conditions
Store sealed in a cool, dry, ventilated area with controlled access. Protect the hygroscopic crystals from moisture and unnecessary heat; keep separate from strong oxidizers.
Packaging Integrity
Inspect bag liners and seams before opening. Keep crystals and handling tools clean, retain cobalt hazard and lot labels, and seal partly used packaging against contamination.
Packaging
25 kg bags / 1,000 kg bags
Handling & Protection
Use closed or locally extracted powder/crystal handling. Avoid dust inhalation and skin contact. Wear appropriate protective gloves, goggles and clothing; apply particulate respiratory protection when required by the exposure assessment.
What Is Cobalt(II) Acetate Tetrahydrate?
Cobalt(II) acetate tetrahydrate, Co(CH3COO)2·4H2O, CAS 6147-53-1, molecular weight 249.08 g/mol, is a hydrated cobalt salt supplied as brown-red crystals. It is used to prepare oxidation catalysts, such as those for terephthalic acid production, and other cobalt compounds and surface-treatment systems.
The TDS specifies purity ≥99.0%, with limits on nickel, iron, manganese, zinc, insoluble residue, sulfate and chloride. Relative density is about 1.705 and pH about 7.2 at 50 g/L and 20°C.
It ships as UN 3077, Class 9, packing group III. Cobalt salt dust can cause respiratory and skin sensitization and has cancer, fertility and genetic hazards, so use enclosed handling and exposure controls.
As a cobalt acetate supplier and exporter in China, ZXCHEM packs it in 25 kg or 1,000 kg bags.
