    Sodium Sulphate Anhydrous 99% 25kg

    Sodium Sulfate Anhydrous (99%) is a versatile chemical used as a filler and processing aid in detergents, a drying agent (desiccant) in labs, a fining agent in glassmaking, and a levelling agent in textile dyeing to ensure even color penetration. It���s also crucial in the pulp/paper industry, for producing other chemicals (like sodium sulfide), and even has applications in leather tanning and metallurgy, acting as a filler and stabilizer across many sectors.

    Key Applications:
    Detergents: Acts as a filler in powdered detergents, improving flow and preventing caking, plus softens water.
    Glass Manufacturing: Removes small air bubbles (fining agent) from molten glass, improving clarity.
    Textiles: Used as a levelling agent to help dyes penetrate fibers evenly and as a stabilizer.
    Laboratories: An effective, inert drying agent (desiccant) for removing water from organic solvents and solutions.
    Pulp & Paper: A key ingredient in making sulfate (kraft) pulp for paper.
    Chemical Industry: Raw material for producing sodium sulfide, sodium silicate, and water glass.
    Other Industries: Used in leather processing, nonferrous metallurgy, and even in certain food processing as a diluent for colors (though specific grade matters).
