Tetraamminepalladium(II) Chloride Monohydrate
Tetraamminepalladium(II) Chloride Monohydrate (CAS: 13933-31-8) is a white to off-white crystalline palladium ammine complex that is stable in air and easy to handle. It is a key precursor for electroless palladium and palladium-nickel plating, where it releases palladium metal smoothly on catalyzed surfaces, and it is also used to prepare supported palladium catalysts and other palladium complexes. The defined monohydrate form makes weighing and bath make-up straightforward, and its good solubility helps users prepare precise plating concentrates. The compound stores well as a dry powder and transfers cleanly into aqueous ammonia systems used in plating operations. It is favored in electronics manufacturing, printed circuit board finishing, and catalyst production where a reliable, water-compatible palladium source with consistent metal content is required.
• Electroless plating: a primary palladium source for autocatalytic palladium and palladium-nickel deposition on plastics, ceramics, and metals used in electronics and decorative applications.
• Electronics: used in PCB surface finishing, connector plating, and conductive layer preparation for components that need corrosion resistance and reliable solderability.
• Catalyst production: a precursor for supported palladium hydrogenation and oxidation catalysts used in fine-chemical and petrochemical processes.
• Coordination chemistry: a convenient starting material for further palladium ammine and amine complexes, supporting research programs and custom catalyst development.
