product description

Methyl Red#493-52-7

Methyl Red is usually a lustrous purple crystal or reddish-brown powder. It is almost insoluble in water but soluble in ethanol, chloroform and acetic acid. It is mainly used in acid-base titration to indicate the pH value of the solution and determine the titration endpoint through color changes.

Product Usage

As indicator in 0.1% alcoholic solution; pH: 4.4 red, 6.2 yellow. Used for titrating NH3, weak organic bases, e.g., alkaloids; not suitable for organic acids, except oxalic and picric acid. Methyl red is easily reduced, thereby losing its color, and readings should be made promptly. It is gradually being replaced by sulfonphthalein indicators, such as bromcresol green, which are more stable and exhibit a sharper change in color.
