Chromic Acid Flakes are a high‑performance source of hexavalent chromium for hard chrome plating, decorative chrome, anodizing, and metal etching. Sourced from South Africa, Kazakhstan, and Russia, these flakes provide reliable assay and low impurity levels to support demanding plating shops and OEM lines.
When formulated with appropriate catalysts, they deliver hard, wear‑resistant chrome deposits, excellent corrosion protection, and bright, uniform finishes across a wide current density range.
| Sr. No. | Description | Specification |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Purity | Technical / plating grade |
| 2 | Chemical Formula | Primarily CrO3 |
| 3 | Form | Dark red to reddish‑brown flakes |
| 4 | Country of origin | Kazakhstan, Russia |
| 5 | Quantities | Available in standard industrial 25kg and 50kg bags |
Hygroscopic, dark red solid with strong oxidizing properties
Highly soluble in water, forming strongly acidic chromic acid solutions
Strong oxidizer; reacts vigorously with organic materials and reducing agents
Decomposes on heating, releasing oxygen
Hard chrome and decorative chrome electroplating baths
Anodizing of aluminium and selected alloys
Metal etching, passivation, and surface conditioning before coating or bonding
Manufacture of other chromium(VI) compounds
Hexavalent chromium compound: toxic, corrosive, carcinogenic, and environmentally hazardous
Requires engineered ventilation, closed transfer systems, and robust waste‑treatment plants
Operators must use full PPE including acid‑resistant gloves, eye/face protection, and protective clothing
Store in cool, dry, well‑ventilated areas away from combustibles and organic materials
