Product Overview
CUPRIC SULPHATE PENTAHYDRATE 99% AR/ACS is a high-purity, blue crystalline salt widely used in laboratory settings due to its consistent quality and reliability. This grade meets both Analytical Reagent (AR) and American Chemical Society (ACS) standards, ensuring minimal impurities and precise results in chemical reactions. The pentahydrate form provides excellent solubility in water, making it suitable for preparing solutions in titration, electroplating, and qualitative analysis. Its stable chemical composition ensures reproducibility in experiments, while the 99% purity level guarantees accuracy in quantitative applications. The product is packaged in airtight containers to prevent moisture absorption and degradation, maintaining its efficacy over extended storage periods. Whether used as a catalyst, oxidizing agent, or reagent, this cupric sulphate variant delivers consistent performance, making it a staple in research and testing environments.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of cupric sulphate pentahydrate?
When stored in a cool, dry place in its original sealed packaging, cupric sulphate pentahydrate retains its stability for up to 2-3 years. Exposure to humidity may cause clumping but does not affect its chemical properties.
2. Can this product be used for electroplating applications?
Yes, the 99% AR/ACS grade is suitable for electroplating due to its high purity and consistent copper ion release, ensuring uniform metal deposition on substrates.
3. Is this cupric sulphate compatible with glassware?
The product is chemically stable with borosilicate glass, but prolonged contact with solutions may cause etching. Rinse glassware thoroughly after use to prevent residue buildup.
4. Are there any alternatives for lower-purity applications?
For non-analytical uses, technical-grade cupric sulphate (98% purity) is available at a lower cost, though it may contain trace impurities unsuitable for precise lab work.
5. How should I dispose of unused cupric sulphate?
Dissolve in water and neutralize with sodium carbonate before disposal, following local hazardous waste regulations. Avoid dumping solid crystals directly into drains or general waste.
