Olive Green Crystalline Powder
Ammonium tetrachloropalladate(II) is one of the preferred complexes, which are used for the preparation of palladium metallic particles. In addition, it forms Pd-creatinine complexes, which find use in the field of catalysis, and semiconductors. Colloidal palladium nanocatalysts and metal polymer catalyst systems can be prepared from ammonium tetrachloropalladate.
ChEBI: Ammonium tetrachloropalladate is a salt comprising separate ammonium cations and square planar [PdCl4](2-) anions. It contains a tetrachloropalladate(2-).
A severe skin irritant. When heated to decomposition it emitsvery toxic fumes of Cl-, NOx, and NH3.
