Ferrous sulphate heptahydrate is a blue-green crystal, commonly known as alum, produced naturally as hydroalum.At 90ºC, it can lose 6 crystal water to form a white monohydrate, and at 300ºC, it can lose all crystal water to form anhydrous substance.In the air, the alum will also be weathered and lose crystal water, and it will be oxidized to ferric sulfate Fe2(SO4)3 and become a yellowish-brown powder, so it needs to be sealed and preserved.Ferrous sulphate is used to make blue-black ink, wood preservatives, inorganic pigments, fabric dyeing mordants, and agricultural pests.
Application:
In industry, it is used for manufacturing iron salt, ink, iron oxide red and indigo, as mordant, tanning agent, water purifier, wood preservative and disinfectant, etc.Used in agriculture as fertilizer, herbicide and pesticide.
