Barium Sulphate BP

Abstract:
Barium sulfate (or sulphate) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula BaSO4. It is a white crystalline solid that is odorless and insoluble in water. It occurs as the mineral barite, which is the main commercial source of barium and materials prepared from it.

 

Use/Application:
Used as a component of oil well drilling fluid. The majority of synthetic barium sulfate is used as a component of white pigment for paints

 

Identity:
Molecular Formula: BaSO4
Molecular Weight: 233.4 g/mol
CAS No.: 7727-43-7
