What it is and what it does. Basic copper carbonate is the neutralising and copper-supplying salt used to raise the copper content of acid copper baths and to adjust colouring solutions without adding free acid.

  • Green powder that dissolves in acid to give copper ions; unlike copper sulfate it adds no sulfate.
  • Used when the bath is low in metal but the acid content is already correct.
  • Also used in the preparation of antique and verdigris type colouring solutions.

Buyer Questions We Answer Every Week

QuestionAnswer
Why is addition done slowly?Because dissolution releases carbon dioxide and a fast addition can foam over the tank.
Can it be used instead of copper sulfate?Yes when the sulfate content must not be increased; otherwise copper sulfate is cheaper.
