Its applications extend further: it is used as an additive in feed and fertilizers, an ingredient in insecticide blends, and a foundational material for producing other copper-based salts. It also plays key roles in textile dyeing as a mordant, in azo dye synthesis as a reagent, and as a preservative for hides, a processing agent in leather tanning, and a protective treatment for wood products.
