Radium sulfate is the most insoluble sulfate known. The barium derivative is useful in the gravimetric analysis of sulfate: if one adds a solution of most barium salts, for instance barium chloride, to a solution containing sulfate ions, barium sulfate will precipitate out of solution as a whitish powder. This is a common laboratory test to ...
Sodium sulfate (also known as sodium sulphate or sulfate of soda) is the inorganic compound with formula Na 2 SO 4 as well as several related hydrates. All forms are white solids that are highly soluble in water. With an annual production of 6 million tonnes, the decahydrate is a major commodity chemical product.
Magnesium sulfate is used both externally (as Epsom salt) and internally. The main external use is the formulation as bath salts, especially for foot baths to soothe sore feet. Such baths have been claimed to also soothe and hasten recovery from muscle pain, soreness, or injury. [15]
Barium sulfate (or sulphate) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ba SO 4.It is a white crystalline solid that is odorless and insoluble in water.It occurs in nature as the mineral barite, which is the main commercial source of barium and materials prepared from it.
Ammonium sulfate is a precursor to other ammonium salts, especially ammonium persulfate. Ammonium sulfate is listed as an ingredient for many United States vaccines per the Centers for Disease Control. [12] Ammonium sulfate has also been used in flame retardant compositions acting much like diammonium phosphate.
Aluminium sulfate is a salt with the formula Al 2 (SO 4) 3.It is soluble in water and is mainly used as a coagulating agent (promoting particle collision by neutralizing charge) in the purification of drinking water [3] [4] and wastewater treatment plants, and also in paper manufacturing.
Potassium sulfate (K 2 SO 4) has been known since early in the 14th century.It was studied by Glauber, Boyle, and Tachenius.In the 17th century, it was named arcanuni or sal duplicatum, as it was a combination of an acid salt with an alkaline salt.
Calcium sulfate has a long history of use in dentistry. [11] It has been used in bone regeneration as a graft material and graft binder (or extender) and as a barrier in guided bone tissue regeneration. It is a biocompatible material and is completely resorbed following implantation. [12]
