description Product Description
Copper sulfate solution is widely used in agriculture as a fungicide and pesticide. It helps control fungal diseases in crops such as potatoes, grapes, and fruit trees, often applied in the form of Bordeaux mixture, which combines copper sulfate with lime. In addition, it is used to correct copper deficiency in soils, promoting healthy plant growth.
In industrial settings, copper sulfate solution serves as an electrolyte in electroplating processes, where it facilitates the deposition of copper onto metal surfaces for coating and finishing purposes. It is also used in metal recovery operations, particularly in the extraction of copper from low-grade ores through solvent extraction and electrowinning.
The solution finds use in water treatment as an algaecide, effectively controlling algae growth in reservoirs, ponds, and swimming pools. In education and research laboratories, it is commonly used in chemistry experiments, such as crystal growth, electrochemical demonstrations, and as a reagent in qualitative analysis.
In veterinary medicine, diluted copper sulfate solutions are sometimes used for hoof baths to prevent and treat foot infections in livestock, particularly in cattle. It also plays a role in some diagnostic tests in clinical settings, such as in the detection of certain blood disorders.
