Best Cupric Chloride Dihydrate Manufacturer & Supplier in India
This copper chloride is available in variegated packaging options as per customers’ demands. Meghachem is a leading name in Cupric Chloride Dihydrate manufacturing in India, with customers in 55 countries across 5 continents. Our entire range is thoroughly tested on the basis of well-defined parameters to ensure the quality of product.
Cupric Chloride Dihydrate is the hydrated form of copper(II) chloride, naturally occurring as the mineral eriochalcite. In this form, two water molecules are incorporated into the crystal structure, giving the compound its characteristic green to bluish green colour and making it highly suitable for aqueous industrial processes where a water-containing copper chloride form is preferred.

What is Cupric Chloride Dihydrate Used For?
Cupric Chloride Dihydrate’s broad solubility profile and stable crystalline form make it the preferred copper chloride for aqueous-phase industrial applications across multiple sectors.
Chemicals
Catalyst for Organic & Inorganic Reactions
Used as a catalyst for organic and inorganic reactions across industrial chemical manufacturing. Its water solubility makes it especially convenient for aqueous-phase reactions, including the Wacker oxidation process and various halogenation reactions in specialty chemical synthesis.
Petroleum
Petroleum Industry Applications
Cupric Chloride Dihydrate is used in the petroleum industry as a catalyst and chemical intermediate in certain refining processes. Its ready water solubility allows it to be used effectively in aqueous treatment systems within petroleum processing operations.
Textile
Mordant for Dyeing & Printing Textiles
Used as a mordant in textile dyeing and printing, where it fixes dyes to fabric fibres and improves colour fastness. The dihydrate form is preferred for textile applications because it dissolves readily in dye baths without introducing anhydrous handling complications.
Electronics
PCB Etching & Surface Treatment
Cupric Chloride Dihydrate is used in printed circuit board (PCB) etching solutions to selectively remove copper from circuit boards. Its consistent solubility in aqueous etchant systems ensures predictable etch rates and clean circuit trace definition in electronics manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Copper(II) Chloride Dihydrate is a hydrate that is the dihydrate form of copper(II) chloride. It occurs naturally as the mineral eriochalcite. It has a role as an EC 5.3.3.5 (cholestenol Delta-isomerase) inhibitor. It is a hydrate and a halide mineral. It appears as green to bluish green crystals and is readily soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, and acetone.
Copper Chloride Dihydrate is the chemical compound with the chemical formula CuCl₂·2H₂O. The molecular weight is 170.49 g/mol and the CAS number is 10125-13-0. The ".2H₂O" indicates two molecules of water of crystallization incorporated into the crystal structure, distinguishing it from the anhydrous form (CuCl₂, MW 134.45).
It is used as a catalyst for organic and inorganic reactions. It is also used in the petroleum industry, as well as used as a mordant for dyeing and printing textiles. Additional applications include PCB etching in electronics manufacturing and as a chemical intermediate in various industrial processes.
Yes. Cupric Chloride Dihydrate is soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, and acetone. This broad solubility profile makes it more versatile than the anhydrous form for applications requiring dissolution in different solvent systems, including textile dye baths, catalyst preparation, and aqueous etchant solutions.
Our standard specification is Purity at 98.00% minimum, Total Copper at 36.5% minimum, Moisture at 4.00% maximum, Water Insoluble at 200 ppm maximum, Iron at 200 ppm maximum, and pH (5% solution) between 2.5 and 4.0. A Certificate of Analysis is provided with every shipment.
