Storage & Shipping

Storage Conditions

Keep tightly sealed in a cool, dry, ventilated area with controlled access. Segregate from acids and strong oxidizers; acid contact can release very toxic gas.

Packaging Integrity

Inspect bag liners, seams and pallet wrapping for damage or moisture. Keep lot labels legible, use dry dedicated tools and reseal opened liners immediately.

Packaging

25 kg lined bags

Handling & Protection

Use effective dust extraction and avoid inhalation, ingestion and skin contact. Wear suitable chemical-resistant gloves, protective clothing and tight goggles; keep eyewash facilities accessible.

What Is Potassium Thiocyanate?

Potassium thiocyanate (KSCN), CAS 333-20-0, is a water-soluble thiocyanate salt. It is used in electroplating, photographic and dye processing, as an analytical reagent for iron, and in chemical synthesis.

The white crystals have KSCN ≥99.0% on a dry basis, pH 6.0–6.8 (50 g/L), sulfate and chloride each ≤0.04% and ignition residue ≤0.02%.

It is not regulated as dangerous goods. Keep it away from acids, which release toxic gas.

As a potassium thiocyanate supplier and exporter in China, ZXCHEM packs it in 25 kg lined bags.
