Non Agricultural Uses ( Powder )
| The main application of Zinc sulfate monohydrate is as a coagulant in the production of rayon. Zinc sulfate monohydrate is also a precursor to the pigment lithopone. Zinc sulfate monohydrate is used as in electrolytes for zinc plating, as a mordant in dyeing, as a preservative for skins and leather and in medicine as an astringent and emetic Zinc sulfate monohydrate is also used as laboratory reagent |

4. Storage & Handing
Store in original container tightly closed and in a locked, dry, cool area away from foodstuffs, fertilizer and see.
Zinc sulfate monohydrate is subject to signage and secondary containment when stored in quantities of 100kg or more, either alone or in aggregate with substances of the same hazard classification.
5. Packing
In 25kg /1000kg/1100kg/1200kg /1250kg pp bag
6. Application Recommendations
Zinc sulfate monohydrate is typically directly applied to soil at 10-15kg/ha, resulting in substantial residual effects with responses lasting several years. However this product does not dissolve as readily as the heptahydrate form thus is not appropriate for foliar application.
