XRD Chemical is a professional Ferrous Sulfate Monohydrate manufacturer and supplier in China, offering high-purity FeSO₄·H₂O powder and granules (91% min) for animal feed, water treatment, cement, and industrial applications.
Ferrous sulfate monohydrate is a gray to off-white crystalline powder with a molecular weight of 169.93 g/mol. It is obtained primarily as a byproduct of titanium dioxide production via the sulfate process and from steel pickling operations, making it a cost-effective and sustainable iron source . The monohydrate form offers higher iron content and better storage stability compared to the heptahydrate form .
The primary application of ferrous sulfate monohydrate is as an iron supplement in animal feed to prevent iron deficiency anemia in livestock, especially piglets and poultry . It is also widely used as a coagulant and flocculant in water and wastewater treatment for phosphate removal and heavy metal precipitation . In the construction industry, it serves as a chromium reducer in cement to lower hexavalent chromium content . Additional uses include iron oxide pigment production, soil amendment and fertilizer application, and as a precursor for synthesizing lithium iron phosphate cathode material for batteries .
