Introduction

Beryllium sulfate tetrahydrate is a colorless tetragonal crystal. The production method is to slowly add Be(OH)2 powder into dilute sulfuric acid, dissolve it under stirring until it no longer dissolves, filter, and add a small amount of sulfuric acid to the filtrate. After acidification, it was concentrated by evaporation. After cooling to room temperature, the crystals were drained and air-dried at room temperature. This crystal is beryllium sulfate tetrahydrate.

Chemical properties

Use

●  Used as analytical reagents, also in the manufacture of other beryllium salts

●  It is used to study the chelation of beryllium with dicarboxylate to understand the physiology and chemistry of beryllium.
