Copper Sulphate pentahydrate CAS No. 7758-99-8 About

Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate (commonly known as Copper sulphate pentahydrate, Blue vitriol, Bluestone, or Cupric sulfate pentahydrate) is a bright blue crystalline inorganic compound with the chemical formula CuSO5HO. It is highly soluble in water and is widely used in chemical laboratories and manufacturing processes due to its stable and reactive copper ion content. This compound is commonly employed as a reagent in analytical chemistry, electroplating, and as a catalyst in various reactions. In industrial applications, copper sulphate pentahydrate is extensively used in agriculture as a fungicide and algaecide, in textile dyeing and printing, in wood preservation, and in the production of pigments, batteries, and other copper-based chemical products.
