Description
Iron(III) oxide is a high-purity inorganic oxide offered in the ROTI®METIC 99,98 % (3N₈) grade for demanding laboratory and materials work. With CAS number 1309-37-1 and empirical formula Fe₂O₃, it has a molar mass of 159,69 g/mol and a density of 5,25 g/cm³. This fine chemical supports applications in analytical chemistry, ceramics research, pigment studies, and the preparation of iron-containing reference or precursor materials where controlled composition is essential. The compact suits method development, calibration tasks, and small-scale synthesis without excess inventory. Supplied from manufacturer Carl ROTH as part of the ROTI®METIC high-purity range, the material is identified under EG nr. 215-168-2 and is intended for professional laboratory use. Iron(III) oxide remains a standard reagent whenever reproducible Fe(III) oxide feedstock is required in research, quality control, or specialty inorganic formulations.
This article is part of Metals, elements & oxides, in Inorganic chemicals.

Questions about Iron(III) oxide, ROTI®METIC 99,98 % (3N8), 5 g, plastic
What is this article?
Iron(III) oxide, ROTI®METIC 99,98 % (3N8), 5 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Metals, elements & oxides, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
Metals, elements and oxides are the element itself or its oxide, sold as powder, shot, foil or wire. Purity and particle size are both the specification. A 99 percent powder and a 99.999 percent shot of the same element are different articles. Many are reactive to air or to water.
An inorganic chemical is a salt, an acid or base in solid form, a metal, an oxide, or an element. The waters of hydration are part of the formula: a hydrate and an anhydrous salt are different masses for the same ion. Trace metals matter when the salt will be used in analysis. Nanomaterials add particle size to the specification. Look the substance up on PubChem. Hazard classes are on ECHA, under the CLP Regulation and REACH. Transport of the dangerous ones is explained by the UNECE.
