Copper sulfate
Basic characteristics:
Copper sulfate is dark blue large granular crystal or blue granular crystal powder. Toxic, odorless, with a metallic astringency. Density 2.2844g/cm3. Slow weathering in dry air. Soluble in water, the aqueous solution is weakly acidic, insoluble in ethanol. Above 150℃, it will lose all water and crystallize into white powdery anhydrous copper sulfate, and at 650℃, it will decompose into copper oxide and sulfur trioxide.
Application areas:
Inorganic industry is used to manufacture other feed salts such as cuprous chloride, cupric chloride, cupric pyrophosphate, cuprous oxide, cupric acetate, copper carbonate, etc.
The dye and pigment industry is used to manufacture copper-containing monoazo dyes such as reactive brilliant blue, reactive violet, etc.
The organic industry is used as a catalyst for the synthesis of perfumes and dye intermediates, and as a polymerization inhibitor for methyl methacrylate. The coatings industry is used as a fungicide in the production of antifouling paints for ship bottoms.
The electroplating industry is used as the main salt and copper ion additive for full-bright acid copper plating.
The printing and dyeing industry is used as a mordant and an oxygen aid for dyed fabrics.
Agriculture as a fungicide.
It is used as the main raw material of trace element copper as feed additive in the breeding industry
. Food-grade copper sulfate can be used as a chelating agent and clarifying agent in the production process of preserved eggs and wine.
Storage method:
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse, and keep the container sealed;
keep away from fire and heat sources;
store it separately from acids, alkalis, and edible chemicals, and avoid mixing.
