Overview
Hydrazine hydrate (CAS 10217-52-4 ), also known as hydrazine monohydrate, is a concentrated aqueous form of hydrazine used as a reducing agent and chemical intermediate across industrial manufacturing.
It functions primarily as an oxygen scavenger in process systems and as a reactive building block in synthesis. In boiler and steam systems, it removes dissolved oxygen from feedwater to prevent corrosion.
This protects high-pressure equipment in power generation and industrial utilities. Pharmaceutical manufacturers use it as a key intermediate in synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients, including antituberculosis compounds.
In agrochemical production, it serves as a precursor in the synthesis of herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators. Water treatment operations also deploy it as a biocide and reducing agent.
It is particularly effective in closed-loop cooling systems where oxygen control is critical. Hydrazine hydrate is supplied as a liquid, with 64% and 80% aqueous concentrations being the most standard grades.
Technical grade is the primary specification for industrial water treatment and chemical synthesis applications. Pharmaceutical-grade material is available for API manufacturing, supplied with documentation.
This material is manufactured to meet relevant pharmacopoeial standards such as USP , Ph.Eur. , BP , and EP to ensure the highest level of purity for sensitive applications.
