colorless, odorless, monoclinic crystal(s); preparation: reaction of dilute sulfuric acid with Cd or CdO; uses: pigment, electrolyte in Weston standard cell [MER06] [HAW93]
Cadmium sulfate is applied in the formation of novel two-dimensional Cd-SCN coordination solids with unusual and tailorable, checkerboard- or herringbone-patterned structures these structures are important steps toward technologically useful materials.
Cadmium sulfate hydrate is used for formulating screens or for optimization. It is also used as pharmaceutical intermediates.
