98.5% 99% phosphorous Acid
Molecular Formula：H3PO3
Molecular Weight: 82.00
CAS Number: 13598-36-2
EINECS NO.:237-066-7
Properties
Phosphorous acid is a colorless crystal, relative Density: 1.651 (21.1 °C);
melting Point: 73.6 °C; moiling Point: 200 °C (Decomposes); easily soluble in
water and alcohol.
It can be slowly oxidized to phosphoric acid in the air. When heated to 180 °C,
it can be decomposed into phosphoric acid and phosphine (highly toxic). As a
dibasic acid, it has slightly stronger acidity than phosphoric acid. Phosphorous
acid has strong reducibility and can easily reduce Ag+ to metal silver. It can
also reduce sulfuric acid to sulfur dioxide. It is hygroscopic and has strong
hygroscopy.
