CuSO₄·5H₂O — Bright blue crystalline solid (blue vitriol) for copper electroplating, agricultural fungicide, water treatment and mining flotation.
Copper Sulphate Pentahydrate (CuSO₄·5H₂O), also known as blue vitriol or bluestone, is a vivid blue crystalline inorganic salt with a molecular weight of 249.68 g/mol. It begins dehydrating at 110°C and is highly soluble in water with a characteristically acidic pH of 3–4.5. It is one of the most commercially important copper compounds across electroplating, agriculture, mining and water treatment industries.
S. N. Enterprise supplies industrial-grade Copper Sulphate with full manufacturer documentation. The distinctive bright blue crystals are stored in sealed original bags at our Shapar warehouse, dispatched same-day across Saurashtra and next-day to Ahmedabad and beyond.
