Ferrous Sulfate Monohydrate

Ferrous sulfate monohydrate, also called iron(II) sulfate monohydrate or ferrous sulphate monohydrate (formula FeSO4·H2O, CAS 17375-41-6), is a pale-yellow to greyish-white free-flowing powder or granule. It is the dried, low-moisture form of ferrous sulfate, offering a higher iron content and better storage stability than the heptahydrate.

The product is a convenient source of soluble divalent iron and a mild reducing agent, with good flow and reduced caking compared with hydrated forms. Feed, agricultural and technical grades are available with differing iron assay and particle size; exact specifications should be confirmed against the certificate of analysis, and the powder kept dry and sealed to limit oxidation.

Its high, concentrated iron value and reliable flow make ferrous sulfate monohydrate an economical choice for large-volume feed, fertiliser and chromium-reduction programmes, and the dried form resists the clumping and oxidation that can trouble hydrated grades in storage.

Applications

• Iron source and depressant/reagent in mineral flotation and mining processes
• Reduction of soluble hexavalent chromium in cement and effluents
• Iron supplement in animal feed and fertilisers
• Micronutrient for correcting iron chlorosis in crops and soils
• Reducing agent in water and wastewater treatment
• Raw material for iron oxide pigments and other iron salts
