Information about Cadmium Sulfate 8/3-Hydrate / CAS 7790-84-3
Cadmium sulfate 8/3-Hydrate (3CdSO₄·8H₂O) is a key precursor for cadmium sulfide (CdS) pigments, known for their vivid colors, stability, and heat resistance, used in ceramics, plastics, and glass. Its high solubility supports electroplating for corrosion-resistant coatings in aerospace and automotive industries.
It enables controlled cadmium ion release, essential in nanomaterial production, including quantum dots, LEDs, and solar cells. Cadmium sulfate also supports environmental research, chemical analysis, and voltage standardization.
Applications extend to photovoltaics, optoelectronics, nuclear shielding, and advanced materials like photocatalysts and superconductors. Due to its toxicity, strict safety and waste management protocols are required.
