Sodium bismuth oxide, 80%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals
Description
Sodium bismuthate oxide is used as an oxidant in the preparation of hexavalent Americium (Am) during the separation of Am from the lanthanides., hydrothermal synthesis of bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) micrometer-sized single crystals. It is also used as a precursor in the synthesis of bismuth nanoforms under microwave (MW) irradiation. It used to converts almost any manganese compound to permanganate, which is easily assayed spectrophotometrically.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
