About Mercury Sulfate Market

Mercury sulfate is divided into two main subcategories including mercury (I) sulfate and mercury (II) sulfate. Mercury (I) sulfate is also known as mercurous sulfate (Hg2SO4). It is a metallic compound that is white, pale yellow, or beige in color, and is in powdered form. It is used is electrochemical cells and acts a good electrode at temperatures around 212°F. Whereas, mercury (II) sulfate is also known as mercuric sulfate (HgSO4). It is a metallic compound that is odorless, white and is either in the form of granules or powdered crystalline form. It is used as a reagent and catalysts during the manufacturing of chemicals, such as acetaldehyde and for hydration of alkynes.

Moreover, the increasing adoption of renewable energy sources for generation of electricity has led to the rise in demand for solar cells. This, in turn, is increasing the use of mercury sulfate for the production of solar cells, thus driving the growth of the global mercury sulfate market.
