LabChem® Potassium Permanganate, 0.5N (0.1M)

LabChem® POTASSIUM PERMANGANATE, 0.5N (0.1M) is a standardized aqueous solution of potassium permanganate, prepared and assayed to an exact concentration of 0.5N (0.1M). Potassium permanganate is a strong oxidant that serves as its own indicator, producing a persistent faint pink color at the titration endpoint. Its certified normality provides a reliable reference for accurate, reproducible titration results.

It is commonly used as an oxidizing titrant in redox titrations, including the determination of ferrous iron, oxalate, and permanganate demand/oxidizability of water samples. A pre-standardized solution removes the need to standardize the titrant in-house before each use. This reagent should be handled, stored, and used according to established laboratory safety procedures and the manufacturer's instructions.
