Barium chloride dihydrate AR ,500gm

Barium chloride dihydrate AR (also known as barium dichloride dihydrate) is an inorganic compound with the formula BaCl2·2H2O. It is a white crystalline solid with a bitter, salty taste. It is one of the most common water-soluble salts of barium.

Barium chloride is a reagent grade chemical that is used in a variety of applications, including:

• As a test for sulfate ions
• In the manufacture of barium compounds, such as barium carbonate and barium sulfate
• In the production of x-ray contrast media
• In the treatment of hyperkalemia (high potassium levels in the blood)
• As a fire retardant

Barium chloride is a hazardous material and should be handled with care. It is toxic if swallowed or inhaled, and can cause skin and eye irritation.
