It is a product used by many sectors such as feed and feed additives, licking stones, metal coating, wood industry, mining industry, controlling algae reproduction in ponds, agricultural industry (Eyestone), pharmacy and fabric dyeing. Mainly known:

Use in the agricultural sector: Copper sulfate pentahydrate is an effective fungicide. For this purpose Copper sulfate pentahydrate is used, to kill and control fungus and fungal spores. It is used in making Bordeaux mixture.

Copper is involved in the structure of many enzymes as trace elements, as coenzymes or activators and in the structure of red blood cells. It is mostly found in the liver, heart, kidney and brain. With this aspect, it contributes to the growth and development of animals and supports the immune system. Easily soluble in water. Copper is effective in bone formation, tissue development, keratinization, tissue pigmentation in the body, as well as in lipid, energy and protein metabolism. It is necessary for the absorption of iron from intestines and mobilization from tissues to plasma, for iron to be used in hemoglobin formation and therefore for erythrocyte production. Copper is necessary for the production of antioxidant enzymes and for the immune system due to its involvement in the formation of white blood cells. Copper plays a role in the formation of blood, connective tissue metabolism, myelin formation in newborns, bone formation, skin or hair color formation.

DEFICIENCY:

  • The loss of color and characteristic of wool in sheep and goats
  • Continuous diarrhea and sudden death in cattle
  • Ossification disorders similar to rasitism in chickens and dogs
  • Inadequate cytochrome oxidase enzyme system in lambs due to copper deficiency causes demyelination in the central nervous system both during embryonal development and after delivery. After the lamb is born, a paralyzed neural demyenilization occurs at the back of the waist and is incurable and causes the death of the lamb.

This condition is called enzootic ataxia - swayback in lambs.

  • High purity. Copper ratio is always above 25%.
  • Low moisture content. (For Feed, this rate is less than 4 per thousand, while the technical quality is around 1-2%) It should be noted that in the market, especially copper sulphate, which has water content up to 5-6% of technical quality, is sold at a cheaper price, and need to pay with Money for the water content.
  • Feed type is very dried and does not contain much silica. Normally 1-3% is used, Royal Copper Sulphate is less than 0.9%. It is also effective in containing a high proportion of copper minerals.
  • Royal Copper Sulphate mixes homogeneously in premixes because all crystal sizes are equal and small (​It is 100 percent minus 30 mesh). Its small crystal structure allows for easy and quick dissolution, making it suitable for use as a foot bath in the agricultural industry and farms.
  • Royal Feed Copper Sulphate is free flowing easily from silos and does not cause problems in micro-dosing systems.
  • Due to its high purity and small crystal structure, it has high readily soluble biological benefits.
  • Royal Copper sulfate is produced with GMP Plus quality certificate.
