Product Description:

* Chemical property:
Dark purple powder. Stability in dry air below 198 C. Easily dissolved in water and become purplish red solution.As a dry solid, K2FeO4 is stable. It decomposes with evolution of O2 in neutral water, and especially rapidly in acidic water. At high pH, aqueous solutions are stable. The deep purple solutions are similar in appearance to potassium permanganate (KMnO4). It is stronger oxidizing agent than the latter.

* Usage: 

1. In organic synthesis, K2FeO4 oxidizes primary alcohols.
2. K2FeO4 has also attracted attention as a potential cathode material in a "super iron battery."
3. It is also used as bleeding stopper for fresh wounds.

Potassium ferrate is a powerful oxidizing agent.
It has attracted interest for applications in "green chemistry" because the by-products of its use, iron oxides, are environmentally innocuous. In contrast, some related oxidants such as chromate are considered environmentally hazardous.
