| Physical and Chemical Properties | There are two kinds of barium chrome yellow, one is barium chromate [CaCrO4], the other is barium potassium chromate, which is the compound salt of barium chromate and potassium chromate, the chemical formula is BaK2(CrO4)2 or BaCrO4, k2cro4. Barium chromate is a milk-yellow powder, soluble in hydrochloric acid and nitric acid, with extremely low coloring power. Barium chromate International Standard Code for ISO-2068-1972, the requirements of barium oxide content of not less than 56%, chromium trioxide content of not less than 36.5%. Barium potassium chromate is lemon yellow powder, because it contains potassium chromate, it has a certain water solubility, the relative density is 3.65, the refractive index is 1.9, the oil absorption is 11.6%, and the specific volume is 300g/L. |
| Use | Used in the production of safety matches, ceramics, glass pigments, etc. can not be used as a coloring pigment, because it contains chromate, so it is used for anti-rust paint in the role of similar zinc chrome yellow. Barium potassium chromate can not be used as a coloring pigment, only as anti-rust pigment, can replace part of the zinc yellow. From the development trend, it is only one of the varieties of chromate anti-rust pigments that can be used in the coating industry. |

| Use | barium chromate cannot be used as a coloring pigment. Because it contains chromate, it has a similar effect as zinc chrome yellow in rust preventive paint. Barium potassium chromate can not be used as a coloring pigment, only as anti-rust pigment, can replace part of the zinc yellow. From the development trend, it is only one of the varieties of chromate anti-rust pigments that can be used in the coating industry. used as a reagent for the determination of sulfate and selenate used in the production of safety matches, pottery, glass pigments, etc. determination of sulfate or selenate. Yellow pigment, ceramic, glass coloring. |
| production method | barium chromate can be reacted with barium chloride and precipitation, and the reaction equation is as follows: BaCl2 Na2CrO4 → acrob4 ↓ 2NaCl operation method: the equipment for the production of barium chromate is basically the same as that of zinc chrome yellow. The formula for the production of barium chromate is barium chloride [BaCl2 · 2H2O]: sodium dichromate [Na2Cr2O7 · 2H2O]: sodium hydroxide [NaOH]= 244:149:40, sulfate should be avoided in the raw material and the water used, so as to avoid the formation of insoluble barium sulfate mixed into the finished product to reduce the content of barium chromate in the finished product. Sodium hydroxide first reacts with sodium dichromate to generate sodium chromate. The amount of sodium hydroxide added should just neutralize the acidity of sodium dichromate, and more alkali should be prevented. Sodium chromate can be diluted to the relative density of 1.11 of the solution, and test for the presence of sulfate, such as sulfuric acid, can be added in advance a small dose of barium chloride, so that the formation of barium sulfate precipitation, after clarification or filtration. The barium chloride solution was added to the sodium chromate solution, and the barium chromate precipitate was generated by continuous stirring, until the filtrate of the precipitate was clear water, and the addition of the barium chloride solution did not produce precipitation. The resulting pigment slurry can be filtered with a filter press and washed with water until the wash water contains only a very small amount of chloride. Production of barium potassium chromate is dry, with barium carbonate powder with potassium dichromate powder mixed evenly in the converter calcination, the reaction equation is as follows: BaCO3 K2Cr2O7 → BaCrO4 · K2CrO4 CO2 operation method: the ratio of potassium dichromate to barium carbonate is 1.2:1.72, and it needs to be ball-milled in advance, then mixed, and calcined in a brick kiln. The initial calcination temperature is 350 ℃, and the calcination stage reaches 650~700 ℃, after the calcination of semi-finished products by cooling, after crushing, packaging. |
