Product Overview
Product Overview
Copper Sulfate Pentahydrate 25% is a diluted aqueous solution of copper sulfate (CuSOâ‚„·5Hâ‚‚O), widely used in industrial, agricultural, and water treatment applications. This technical-grade solution provides effective antimicrobial, algaecide, and chemical treatment properties in a more controlled and easier-to-handle liquid form compared to solid crystals.
Known for its versatility, copper sulfate solution is commonly used in wastewater treatment, algae control, metal processing, and as a chemical intermediate. Its consistent concentration ensures reliable performance across applications requiring precise dosing and controlled reactivity.
