Zinc Chloride CAS 7646-85-7

Zinc chloride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula ZnCl₂. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder, granules, or fused solid, odorless. Highly soluble in water, as well as in organic solvents such as ethanol, glycerol, and acetone. Commonly used as a flux agent in soldering and brazing operations to remove oxide layers from metal surfaces. Also functions as a dehydrating agent and catalyst in organic synthesis, a preservative for wood and textiles, a mordant in textile dyeing, a coagulant in rubber manufacturing, and an electrolyte additive in dry cell batteries. Highly hygroscopic and deliquescent; should be stored in tightly sealed containers away from moisture and air.
