Barium Chloride (BaCl2, CAS 10361-37-2) is a white, water-soluble salt usually stored as a clear solution. It is toxic if swallowed. It is used to remove sulfate from brine in chlor-alkali plants, and in pigments, heat-treating salts, PVC stabilizers and laboratory analysis. Barium chloride solution tanks should be clearly labeled and kept separate from sulfates and acids. Use the compatibility ratings to choose the right tank resin, fittings and gaskets.
