Description
Pale blue or bright green powder that occurs in nature as the minerals Brochantite and langite. Tribasic copper sulfate is one component in Bordeaux mixture that is prepared by mixing Copper sulfate and Copper hydroxide. It is also found as a corrosion product on Copper and Bronze sculptures. Commercially, tribasic copper sulfate is used as a Fungicide and Insecticide.
See also Brochantite and Copper sulfate.
