Barium Sulphate Extra Pure is a high-purity, white, odorless crystalline powder known for its extreme insolubility in water and chemical inertness, making it highly useful in laboratory settings for qualitative analysis and gravimetric determinations. It is commonly employed in the detection and quantification of sulfate ions through precipitation reactions, as well as in studies involving solubility equilibria and surface chemistry. Its high density and stability also make it valuable in preparing calibration standards and radiopaque materials in research. The extra pure grade ensures minimal contamination, providing consistent and reliable results in sensitive analytical procedures. It should be stored in a dry, tightly sealed container to maintain its quality and prevent contamination.

Description

Barium Sulphate Extra pure

Primary Uses

  1. Standard in Gravimetric Sulfate Analysis
    • Barium sulphate is the precipitate formed in classic gravimetric determination of sulfate ions (SO₄²⁻) — this is one of the most precise methods in quantitative inorganic analysis.
  2. Reference Material for Instrument Calibration
    • Due to its well-defined physical and optical properties, it’s used in X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (IR) as a standard for calibration or sample matrix.
  3. Filler in KBr/IR Pellets for Spectroscopy
    • Finely powdered BaSO₄ is used as a diluent or matrix for preparing solid samples in Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) due to its minimal absorption in the IR range.
  4. Control Substance in Solubility and Ksp Studies
    • As a model compound with very low solubility, it is widely used in experiments dealing with solubility product (Ksp) calculations and equilibrium demonstrations.
  5. Indicator of Sulfate in Qualitative Analysis
    • Used to visually confirm the presence of SO₄²⁻ ions when Ba²⁺ solution is added — an essential part of classical qualitative group analysis.

Secondary Uses

  1. Demonstration of Precipitation Reactions
    • An effective visual tool to teach double displacement reactions and concepts of ionic solubility in educational labs.
  2. Simulation of Radiodense Compounds (Non-medical Use)
    • Used in research simulations that mimic radiodense behavior in imaging, though not used for clinical contrast media (those are pharma-grade and specially treated).
  3. Study of Particle Size and Crystallinity
    • Its uniformity and low solubility make it useful in morphology studies using light scattering, microscopy, or sedimentation.
  4. Component in Laboratory Ceramic Research
    • Sometimes used in experimental ceramic/glass formulations to study refractory behavior and phase stability.
  5. Environmental Chemistry Experiments
    • Useful in remediation studies to simulate precipitation-based removal of sulfates or heavy metals from contaminated water systems.
