Basic Copper Carbonate is often found in the industrial field and is mainly used for the production of copper chloride, copper hydroxide and cuprous chloride, which can effectively prevent fruit from rot. So how do we identify its quality in the process of purchasing basic copper carbonate?


1. From the appearance identification, a multi-point sampling method is adopted, and a sample of basic copper carbonate is taken to observe the color of basic copper carbonate, and the soda-base copper carbonate is a triclinic crystal. The ingot is green, and if it contains impurities such as sodium and magnesium, its color gradually fades as the content of impurities increases. It can be used as a reference during the observation process.

2, using chemical identification method, using chemical experiment method, comparing the color of the two solutions, if there is no precipitation or few precipitates, the quality of the sample is qualified, if the green color of the sample solution is significantly lighter than the pure product, The content of the active ingredient is low, and it is likely to contain some impurities such as sodium, magnesium and potassium. If a large amount of impurities appear in the sample, the lower the active ingredient.
