Description

Copper Sulfate Monohydrate is a vital inorganic salt and a key source of bioavailable copper ions. Its high solubility and stability make it a preferred and cost-effective raw material across numerous industrial and agricultural sectors. This compound is essential for manufacturers in agriculture, animal nutrition, chemical synthesis, and water treatment who require a reliable and consistent source of copper.

Application

• Agricultural Fungicide & Herbicide: A primary ingredient in Bordeaux mixture and other formulations to control fungal diseases on fruits, vegetables, and field crops.
• Animal Feed Additive: Serves as a nutritional copper supplement in premixes for poultry, swine, and cattle to prevent deficiency and promote growth.
• Water Treatment & Algicide: Used to control algae and root growth in reservoirs, ponds, and irrigation systems, and in municipal water treatment processes.
• Chemical Synthesis & Catalyst: Acts as a catalyst in organic reactions and as a starting material for producing other copper compounds and pigments.
• Electroplating & Metal Surface Treatment: Employed in electroplating baths for copper coating and in pickling solutions for metal cleaning and etching.
• Mining & Mineral Processing: Utilized as a flotation agent in the concentration of lead, zinc, and cobalt ores.
• Wood Preservation: Used in formulations to protect lumber from fungal decay and insect damage.
