This test paper allows the quick and easy detection of Chromate (CrO43-). Cr(III) ions must be converted to chromate prior to the detection. For non-destructive testing of materials apply a drop of acid solution (1 part hydrochloric acid 37 % + 4 parts hydrogen peroxide 3 %) to the degreased surface. After 10-30 seconds add a drop sodiumhydroxyde (NaOH). Press the test paper onto the precipitate then put it into diluted sulfuric acid. In the presence of chromium, a violet spot appears. With this procedure Chromium contents >0.1% are safely detected. See QUANTOFIX® Chromate 91301 for semi-quantitative determination. Box of 200 strips. Instruction Sheet (pdf)

Color reaction: white → violet

Product: QUANTOFIX® Chromate Type: Semi-quantitative test strips Gradation / Sensitivity: 0 · 2 · 10 · 30 · 100 mg/L CrO42- Item #: 91301
box of 100 strips & reagent $53.50  

This test allows the quick and easy determination of Chromate in solutions. It comes with all necessary reagents so that the measurement can immediately be started. Within 30 seconds one gets a reliable result. Many Chromate compounds are poisonous and carcinogenic. They are used for example in chrome plating and tanning. QUANTOFIX® Chromate is used for the easy monitoring of water discharged from such plants. Interferences caused by molybdates are eliminated by addition of oxalic acid in crystalline form to the strongly acidic solution. Iron(III) ions are precipitated with sodium hydroxide solution 32 %.
