Description and Uses

Chromium hydroxide (Cr2O(OH)4) is a bright bluish-green pigment prepared by the calcinations of bichromate with boric acid at 500°C. The mass during cooling is hydrolyzed with water, which yields the hydrate.

Chromium(VI) oxide is widely used in chromium electroplating, and as protective coatings in corrosion/oxidation resistance of metals. It is also employed in CDs and DVDs. It is useful as an oxidant in Jones oxidation in acetic acid or acetone. It is used in the oxidation of primary alcohols into carboxylic acids, and secondary alcohols into ketones. With phosphoric acid, it is used as a stripping agent for anodic coatings of all types and in the production of syntheric rubies.
