American Elements: Ruthenium Chloride Supplier and Tech Info

Ruthenium Chloride is a highly insoluble thermally stable Ruthenium source suitable for glass, optic and ceramic applications. Chloride compounds can conduct electricity when fused or dissolved in water. Chloride materials can be decomposed by electrolysis to chlorine gas and the metal. They are formed through various chlorination processes whereby at least one chlorine anion (Cl-) is covalently bonded to the relevant metal or cation. Ultra high purity and proprietary formulations can be prepared. The chloride ion controls fluid equilibrium and pH levels in metabolic systems. Ruthenium Chloride is generally immediately available in most volumes. Ultra high purity and high purity compositions improve both optical quality and usefulness as scientific standards. Nanoscale (See also Nanotechnology Information and Quantum Dots) elemental powders and suspensions, as alternative high surface area forms, may be considered. We also produce Ruthenium Chloride Solution. Additional technical, research and safety (MSDS) information is available.

Ruthenium is a Block D, Group 8, Period 5 element. The electronic configuration is [Kr] 4d⁷ 5s¹. In its elemental form ruthenium's CAS number is 7440-18-8. The ruthenium atom has a radius of 132.5.pm and it's Van der Waals radius is 200.pm.
