General description

Chromium (III) oxide is a chromium complex in which the chromium ion is in +3 oxidation state. The synthesis of its sub-micron powder has been reported.† The IR and Raman spectra of chromium (III) oxide have been studied.† The impact of adding lysozyme on the stability of chromium (III) oxide (Cr2O3) suspension has been evaluated.†

Application

Chromium (III) oxide may be used in the following processes:
  • To modify carbon paste electrodes for optimizing its ability to detect nitric oxide.[1]
  • Preparation of Ni+Cr2O3 composite coatings.[2]
  • Formation of the ternary oxide, CrVMoO7 by solid-state reaction which may be employed in selective oxidation reactions.[3]
Used in a solid-state reaction to form the new ternary oxide, CrVMoO7, can be used in selective oxidation.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  

  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer

    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/449/386/product-dating-information-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer

    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
