Product Overview

Murexide in Sodium Chloride is a dry, pre-formulated indicator blend used primarily in complexometric titrations for detecting calcium and rare earth metal ions, such as cerium. This stable dry mixture is not intended for reconstitution and is designed for direct addition to samples or titration mixtures.

Murexide forms colored complexes with metal ions, transitioning from purple to pink or colorless depending on the specific metal and endpoint conditions. The sodium chloride base ensures homogeneous distribution, ease of handling, and extended shelf life by preventing moisture absorption and degradation of the dye.

Key Features:

• Dry blend for direct use; no reconstitution required
• Sensitive to calcium, cerium, and other metal ions
• Sharp, visible color change at endpoint
• Sodium chloride stabilizes the dye and improves handling
• Long shelf life under dry storage conditions

Applications:

• Complexometric titration of calcium and rare earth metals
• Water hardness determination
• Analytical chemistry of metals in lab and educational settings
• Spot testing and field use without the need for solution preparation
• Coordination chemistry demonstrations in teaching labs

Murexide in Sodium Chloride offers a convenient, stable, and effective indicator for metal analysis, ideal for laboratories seeking reliability and ease in dry titration workflows.
