Potassium Chromate is widely used in synthesis and formulation workflows. Its molecular formula is CrO4-2 and it has a molecular weight of 115.994. Potassium Chromate belongs to the class of Potassium compounds and Chromates, dichromates. Handling requires adherence to specific precautions due to its presence as a Chromium(VI) compound, a known carcinogen. The European Union has set binding The 8-hour limit value is 0.005 mg/m3. Transitional measures allow a limit value of 0.010 mg/m3 until January 17, 2025, and a limit value of 0.025 mg/m3 for welding or plasma cutting processes or similar work processes that generate fume until the same date.
