About Ferric Oxide Red Lab Grade
Lab Alley’s Ferric Oxide Red, also known as Iron(III) Oxide, Iron Trioxide, Umber, and Iron
Oxide fume, appears as reddish air/moisture sensitive powder and is insoluble in Water at ambient
conditions. It is one of the key oxides of iron, the other being Iron(II) Oxide (FeO), and Iron(II,III)
Oxide (Fe2O3) that is naturally found as Magnetite. Iron Oxides, in general, have different
pigments ranging from red and brown to black and yellow. Lab grade chemicals possess reasonable
purity but do not comply with any official standard for quality or purity like the ACS Grade, the
USP Grade, or the FCC Grade. The Lab Grade is also known as Laboratory Reagent (LR) and
Chemically Pure (CP). Lab Alley’s Ferric Oxide Red, Lab Grade is recommended for educational
institutes, research labs, and commercial applications.
