Hydrazine hydrate
What is Hydrazine hydrate?
Hydrazine hydrate (CAS 7803-57-8) is a concentrated aqueous solution of hydrazine; the 1:1 designation refers to the same product.
Where is Hydrazine hydrate used?
- Boiler water and power plant systems: scavenges dissolved oxygen to prevent corrosion in high-pressure pipelines
- Pharmaceutical and agrochemical manufacturing: building block for hydrazide-based drug compounds and herbicides
- Polymer production: polymerization initiator and chain extender in polyurethane and hydrogel systems
- Mining and oil and gas: corrosion inhibition programs
- Metal refining and hydrometallurgy: reducing agent
- It drives synthesis reactions as a reactive intermediate.
Good to know: Technical grade is standard for industrial use; higher-purity specifications meet pharmaceutical intermediate requirements.
Commercial specifications
- 64% and 80% concentrations
- Bulk supply in drums or IBC containers
- Concentration and purity confirmed against analytical specifications
