Sodium Sulphate 98% Anhydrous ACS

What is Sodium Sulphate? Sodium Sulphate (chemical formula Na₂SO₄) is an inorganic compound that appears as a white, crystalline powder or granular solid. It is highly soluble in water and is commonly used in a variety of industrial, laboratory, and chemical applications. Sodium Sulphate is also known by alternate names such as Glauber's Salt (when hydrated) or Sodium Sulfate Anhydrous. It is valued for its role as a drying agent, a component in detergents, and as a raw material in the production of glass, chemicals, and other industrial products. Sodium Sulphate is widely used due to its excellent solubility and its ability to absorb water in anhydrous form.

Frequent Uses

Drying Agent
Commonly used as a drying agent in chemical laboratories and industrial processes. It is used to absorb moisture from organic liquids and gases, helping to maintain the dryness of solvents and other materials during synthesis and purification.

Glass Production
A key ingredient in the manufacture of glass. It is used in the production of various types of glass, including container glass, flat glass, and fibreglass, where it helps to control the melting properties of the glass batch and improve its clarity and quality.

Detergent Manufacturing
In the production of detergents and soaps, where it serves as a filler and helps to modify the properties of the detergent, enhancing its effectiveness and ease of handling. It is commonly added to laundry detergents and dishwashing powders.

Chemical Synthesis
Employed in chemical synthesis as a reagent and in the production of various chemicals, such as sodium salts, sulfuric acid, and in the preparation of other industrial chemicals. Its ability to absorb water and provide a stable reaction environment makes it valuable in these processes.

Textile Industry
Particularly in the dyeing and printing processes. As a mordant, it helps to fix the dye onto fabrics and control the dyeing process, ensuring the uniformity and quality of the finished product.

Laboratory Reagent
Widely used as a reagent in laboratories for various chemical analyses. It is employed in extraction processes, particularly in the preparation of standard solutions and as a dehydrating agent in organic synthesis.

Water Treatment
For removing salts and controlling the properties of water used in industrial processes. It helps to reduce hardness and improve water quality in cooling towers and other water systems.
