General description

Eriochrome® Black T is a hydroxyl-arylazo dye and is generally supplied as a monosodium salt. This dye exists as a dark violet powder with green metallic sheen. Eriochrome Black T is soluble in water and alcohol, but insoluble in common organic solvents. It is mainly used as an indicator in ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) method to determine hardness of water.
Eriochrome® Black T is used as an indicator for complexometric titrations. It functions as an acid-base indicator. Eriochrome® Black T forms complex with Ca2+ and Mg2+, but it binds more strongly to Mg2+ ions.

Application

Eriochrome® Black T has been used to determine the concentration of Ca2+ using complexometric titration method.
