Basic Information
Product Name: Copper Sulfate Pentahydrate
Chemical Formula: CuSO4.5H2O
Molecular Weight: 249.68
Appearance: It is a blue crystal, presenting as irregular lumps or granules.
Melting Point: 110 °C (losing 4 crystal water molecules), 258 °C (losing all crystal water molecules).
Density: 2.284 g/cm³.
Solubility: It is highly soluble in water, and the aqueous solution is blue. It is slightly soluble in ethanol and glycerol.
Chemical Properties
Stability: It is stable under normal temperature and pressure. However, when heated to a certain temperature, it will gradually lose its crystal water.
Oxidizing Property: It has certain oxidizing properties and can act as an oxidant in some chemical reactions.
Reaction with Bases: It can react with strong alkali solutions to form copper hydroxide precipitate. For example, it reacts with sodium hydroxide to form copper hydroxide and sodium sulfate. The chemical equation is: CuSO4 + 2NaOH = Cu(OH)2↓ + Na2SO4.
Reaction with Metals: It can undergo displacement reactions with some active metals. For example, when iron reacts with a solution of copper sulfate pentahydrate, red copper will be deposited on the surface of the iron, and ferrous sulfate is formed at the same time. The chemical equation is: Fe + CuSO4 = FeSO4 + Cu.
Product Uses
Agricultural Field: It is an important fungicide and fertilizer. As a fungicide, it can be used to prevent and control various diseases of crops, such as wheat rust and apple anthracnose. As a fertilizer, it can supply copper elements to plants, promoting their growth and development. It has a significant yield - increasing effect, especially for some crops with high copper requirements, such as rice and corn.
Industrial Field: It is widely used in industries such as electroplating, printing and dyeing, pigments, and batteries. In the electroplating industry, it is used for copper electroplating to make the surface of the plated parts smooth and beautiful. In the printing and dyeing industry, it is used as a mordant, which helps to improve the dyeing effect of dyes. In the pigment industry, it is an important raw material for producing blue and green pigments. In the battery industry, it can be used as an electrolyte or an additive for electrode materials to improve the performance of batteries.
Medical Field: In medicine, it is used as an emetic, astringent, and disinfectant. However, due to its certain toxicity, the dosage needs to be strictly controlled when using it.
Laboratory Use: It is a commonly used chemical reagent in laboratories. It can be used to prepare standard copper ion solutions for chemical analysis and experimental research, such as in experiments for testing proteins and identifying aldehyde groups. At the same time, it can also be used as a catalyst or reactant in some chemical reactions.
Packaging and Storage
Packaging: It is usually packaged in woven bags or plastic drums with inner plastic bags to prevent the product from getting damp and deteriorating. Common packaging specifications include 25 kg/bag and 50 kg/bag.
Storage: It should be stored in a dry, cool, and well - ventilated warehouse, avoiding getting wet and rained. Keep it away from fire sources and heat sources, and prevent direct sunlight. At the same time, it should be stored separately from flammable, explosive, and toxic substances to avoid danger.
Safety Information
Copper Sulfate Pentahydrate is toxic and harmful to the human body. Inhalation or ingestion of excessive amounts of copper sulfate pentahydrate may cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. In severe cases, it can damage organs such as the liver and kidneys. Therefore, during use and storage, avoid contact with skin and eyes. If accidentally contacted, rinse immediately with a large amount of clean water and seek medical attention in a timely manner.
This substance also has a certain impact on the environment. It should be prevented from entering water bodies and soil to avoid pollution to the ecological environment.
