Description of key information
Relative densities are:
Anhydrous ca. 3.1; Nonahydrate ca. 2.1 (bulk density 3100 kg/m³); solution (40 %) ca. 1.5
Key value for chemical safety assessment

| Category member, Molecular Formula | Anhydrous form | Solid hydrate form | Aqueous solution |
| Ferric sulphate, Fe2(SO4)3 | 3.10 at 18 °C | Nonahydrate (CAS 13520-56-4): 2.1 at ambient temperature | 1.47 and 1.45 at 15.5 and 17.5 °C, respectively, ca. 40 % |
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
