Zinc nitrate hexahydrate Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

In the zinc oxide method, add a certain amount of water to the reactor first, and slowly add nitric acid and zinc oxide according to the ratio of 1.6:1 (according to the content of 100%) under stirring to carry out the reaction to Ph value of 3.5 to 4, and stand for 24h , Filter, dilute the filtrate to 30-36°Bé with water, adjust to Ph 3 with nitric acid, add zinc powder, and stir for a few minutes to replace Cu2+, Pb2+ and other ions, and then clarify, and the clear liquid obtained by suction filtration is acidified, Evaporate and concentrate to 60~63°Bé, and then cool to below 50°C under stirring to obtain finished zinc nitrate. If ZnO+2HNO3→Zn(NO3)2+H2O uses more than 98% zinc oxide as raw material, the process of removing impurities can be saved.

Uses

Used as a mordant in dyeing and chemical synthesis of coordination polymers

Material

Nitric acid
