General description

Iron(II) acetate, also known as ferrous acetate, is a white to light brown ionic solid that is highly soluble in water, forming a light green tetrahydrate. It′s less toxic and superior reactivity makes it a safer and more efficient choice for various chemical applications. We also provide a similar product, 517933, with ≥99.99% purity on a trace metals basis.

Application

Iron(II) acetate serves as
  • A precursor for the synthesis of magnetite and hematite nanoparticles via solventless thermal decomposition. These iron oxide nanoparticles are used in applications such as optoelectronics, magnetic data storage, anti-corrosion coatings, biomedical imaging, pigments, and gas sensing.
  • As a precursor in the pyrolysis process to produce a stable, reusable iron-based nanocatalyst supported on silica, which efficiently hydrogenates a wide range of nitriles into primary amines
  • As a dopant precursor to partially substitute lead in MAPbI₃ perovskite thin films, enabling the tuning of structural, dielectric, and piezoelectric properties for the development of high-performance flexible piezoelectric generators (PEGs).

Features and Benefits

  • 95% purity ensures minimal contamination and meets industry standards for critical applications.
  • Suitable for chemical synthesis as a precursor.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
