Calcium sulfate (or calcium sulphate) is a common laboratory and industrial chemical. In the form of Î³- anhydrite (the nearly anhydrous form), it is used as a desiccant. It is also used as a coagulant in products like tofu. In the natural state, unrefined calcium sulfate is a translucent, crystalline white rock.
Barium sulfate (or sulphate) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula BaSO 4. 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.arium sulfate is one of the most insoluble salts of sulfate. Its low solubility is exploited in qualitative inorganic analysis as a test for Ba 2+ ions as well as for sulfate.
