Chromium Formate
Chromium Formate is a highly effective tanning agent known for its exceptional solubility and penetration. It is the preferred choice in the leather industry for producing high-quality, durable finished goods.
As a chromium(III) source, it offers more controlled reactivity than sulfates, ensuring a uniform color and texture. Its purity prevents unwanted metallic spotting on sensitive leather and textile fibers.
In the construction sector, it is utilized as a corrosion inhibitor in specialty cement and mortar. Its green crystalline powder form allows for easy handling and precise dosing in industrial aqueous solutions.
Chromium Formate
- Leather Tanning: Acts as a primary tanning agent that ensures structural stability and softness in leather.
- Textile Mordant: Used to fix chromium-based dyes, improving the brilliance and longevity of the finish.
- Cement Additive: Integrated into construction materials to protect steel reinforcements from oxidative degradation.
Classified as a skin sensitizer and eye irritant. Handling requires nitrile gloves, safety goggles, and proper dust control to prevent inhalation or allergic reactions.
