Sulfate compounds arise when cations combine with the anion SO42-. Often this combination results in an ionic compound, although sulfates can engage in covalent bonding with most elements. The metal complex PtSO4P(C6H5)32 is clearly covalent Pt-O bonding. Dialkylsulfates, such as dimethylsulfate are covalent, distillable species. Many sulfate salts are highly soluble in water. Exceptions include calcium sulfate, strontium sulfate, and barium sulfate, which are poorly soluble.

Potential Health Effects

This material hydrolyzes in water to form sulfuric acid, which is responsible for the irritating effects given below.

Inhalation:	Ingestion:
Causes irritation to the respiratory tract. Symptoms may include coughing, shortness of breath.	Causes irritation to the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. There have been two cases of fatal human poisonings from ingestion of 30 grams of alum.

Inhalation:	Ingestion:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.	If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.

Engineering Controls :	Personal Protection :
A system of local and/or general exhaust ventilation is recommended to keep exposure levels as low as possible. If condition of use creates dusty environment, local exhaust ventilation is recommended.	Avoid skin and eye contact and inhalation of dust. Wear overalls, eye protection & gloves. Use chemical safety goggles or face shield where dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Use a dust mask or dust/mist respirator. Always wash hands before smoking, eating, drinking or using the toilet.

Inhalation: Causes irritation to respiratory tract, symptoms may include coughing, sore throat, and shortness of breath. May result in ulceration and perforation of respiratory tract. When heated, this compound may give off copper fume, which can cause symptoms similar to the common cold, including chills and stuffiness of the head.
