Potassium Permanganate 500 g Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Potassium Permanganate 500 g (Product Code: SCI-685/301) is analytical reagent grade potassium permanganate, a deep purple crystalline oxidising agent used to prepare standard solutions for redox titrations and colour-change demonstrations in school and college chemistry labs. The 500 g pack, supplied with an MSDS, suits departments that make up stock solution for many practical sessions. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, a lab chemicals supplier to institutions.

Specifications

What Is Potassium Permanganate 500 g Used For?

Departments running redox titrations make up permanganate solution in bulk: the crystals are dissolved in distilled water, the solution is left to stand and filtered to remove any manganese dioxide, and it is then standardised against warm oxalic acid acidified with dilute sulfuric acid. Kept in an amber bottle away from light, the standardised stock serves titrations against ferrous ammonium sulfate or oxalic acid across several sessions, with its own colour marking the end point.

The same reagent drives the “chemical chameleon” demonstration: in alkaline solution with a little sugar, purple permanganate turns green as manganate forms and then orange-brown as manganese dioxide appears, while in acid it fades to almost colourless. Comparing the media shows that the product of a redox reaction depends on conditions. It is a strong oxidiser that stains skin and fabric brown, so keep it away from organic matter and reducing agents and wear goggles and gloves.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The product code SCI-685/301 for this 500 g pack; a smaller Potassium Permanganate listing is also available.
• The number of 500 g packs for the year’s titration sessions.
• Companion items such as oxalic acid, burettes and amber reagent bottles.
• The delivery destination, since oxidising chemicals are subject to transport restrictions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Potassium Permanganate 500 g used for?
Potassium Permanganate 500 g is used to prepare and standardise permanganate solution for redox titrations with oxalic acid or ferrous ammonium sulfate, and for colour-change demonstrations that compare its reduction in acidic, neutral and alkaline media.

What grade and pack size is Potassium Permanganate 500 g?
Potassium Permanganate 500 g, product code SCI-685/301, is analytical reagent grade potassium permanganate supplied in a 500 g pack with an MSDS covering hazards, first aid, storage and disposal.

When should I choose Potassium Permanganate 500 g over the smaller pack?
Potassium Permanganate 500 g suits departments that prepare stock solution for many titration sessions or several classes, while the smaller Potassium Permanganate listing suits occasional use. Both are analytical reagent grade and come with an MSDS.

How should Potassium Permanganate 500 g be stored?
Keep Potassium Permanganate 500 g tightly closed in a cool, dry cupboard away from organic material and reducing agents, and store prepared solutions in amber bottles. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.

Is Potassium Permanganate 500 g hazardous?
Yes. Potassium Permanganate 500 g is a strong oxidiser that is harmful if swallowed, stains skin brown and can react dangerously with organic substances such as glycerol or alcohols. Wear goggles and gloves and follow the MSDS supplied.

Who supplies Potassium Permanganate 500 g?
Potassium Permanganate 500 g is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, testing laboratories, dealers and importers in India and international markets, as a sourced reagent sent with its MSDS.

What does a quotation for Potassium Permanganate 500 g need?
A quotation for Potassium Permanganate 500 g needs the product code SCI-685/301, the number of packs, your delivery destination and any burettes, oxalic acid or bottles to add. Send the list through the contact page.
