Overview
Ruthenium(III) nitrosyl nitrate is a high-purity ruthenium compound supplied as a solution. It serves as a valuable precursor for the preparation of catalysts, particularly those used in ammonia synthesis (Haber‑Bosch process) and various heterogeneous catalytic reactions. The ruthenium content and the nitrosyl/nitrate ligands provide excellent dispersibility and reactivity during catalyst preparation.
Applications
Ammonia synthesis catalysts: Precursor for ruthenium-based catalysts, which offer higher activity at lower pressures compared to traditional iron catalysts.
Heterogeneous catalysts: Used in hydrogenation, oxidation, and other catalytic processes in petrochemical and fine chemical industries.
Research: Employed in academic and industrial laboratories for catalyst development and surface science studies.
Key Features
High purity and consistent active content (12.5%) ensure reproducible catalyst performance.
Solution form allows easy handling and precise dosing during catalyst impregnation.
Well-defined chemical composition facilitates tailored catalyst formulations.
Suitable for both supported and unsupported catalyst preparations.
Handling and Storage
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from reducing agents, organic materials, and acids.
Keep containers tightly sealed to prevent evaporation and contamination.
Handle with standard laboratory precautions; use appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, safety goggles, lab coat).
In case of spillage, absorb with inert material and dispose of according to local regulations.
Safety
Ruthenium compounds may be harmful if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed safety information.
Quality Assurance
Each batch is analyzed for ruthenium content, impurities, and physical properties to ensure consistent quality and performance.
