Zinc sulfate heptahydrate, also recognized as zinc alum, is a remarkable inorganic compound with the molecular formula ZnSO4·7H2O. This substance appears as a colorless orthorhombic prismatic crystal and is often seen as a pristine white crystalline powder. It boasts excellent solubility in water and moderate solubility in ethanol.
When subjected to heat, zinc sulfate begins to decompose at 200°C and fully disintegrates at 770°C. It is widely employed across diverse industries, including media colorants, wood preservatives, and the manufacturing of zinc salts. In addition, zinc sulfate plays a vital role in medicine, synthetic fibers, electrolysis, electroplating, pesticides, and serves as a bleaching agent in the paper industry.
Despite its utility, caution is imperative, as zinc sulfate is hazardous if ingested, can inflict severe eye damage, and poses high toxicity to aquatic life. Ensuring the prevention of its release into the environment is essential to safeguard aquatic ecosystems from long-lasting detrimental effects.
