ETHYLENE GLYCOL DISTEARATE CAS#627-83-8
Versatile Industrial Applications: Ferrous sulfate heptahydrate is widely used in industries such as pigments production, water treatment, and as a reducing agent.
Effective Water Treatment Agent: It plays a significant role in water purification processes, helping to remove impurities and improve water quality.
Pigment Production: This compound is a key ingredient in the production of various pigments, contributing to vibrant colors and high-quality finishes.
Dehydration and Versatility: The dehydration process allows for the conversion to anhydrous ferrous sulfate, expanding its uses in different industrial sectors.
Ferrous sulfate heptahydrate, also known as iron (II) sulfate heptahydrate (FeSO₄·7H₂O), is produced by the reaction of sulfuric acid with iron. This compound typically appears as pale, blueish-green crystals or granular solids. Upon gradual heating, ferrous sulfate heptahydrate undergoes dehydration, eventually transforming into anhydrous ferrous sulfate. The process of dehydration leads to the removal of the seven water molecules associated with the crystal structure, resulting in the formation of dry ferrous sulfate. This compound is commonly utilized in various industrial applications, including in the production of pigments, as a reducing agent, and in water treatment processes.
