Ferric nitrate(CAT: R071257) is an inorganic salt that is commonly used in laboratory research, industrial processes, and in some medical applications. Ferric nitrate is a strong oxidizing agent, and is used as a source of iron in the production of pigments, dyes, and other chemicals. It is also used in the manufacturing of steel and other metal alloys. In laboratory research, ferric nitrate is often used as a reagent to test for the presence of certain compounds, such as phenols and alkaloids, in biological samples.
