    Sodium Sulphate Decahydrate 1000kg

    Sodium Sulfate Decahydrate (Glauber���s Salt) is a versatile chemical used heavily as a filler in powdered detergents, a fining/fluxing agent in glassmaking, and a leveling agent in textile dyeing to ensure even color.
    It���s also used in chemical synthesis, as a drying agent for solvents, for heat storage in thermal tiles, and historically as a laxative. Sodium Sulphate Decahydrate 1000kg

    Key Applications:
    Detergents: Acts as a filler, improving consistency and reducing costs, though its use is declining with liquid detergents.
    Glass Industry: Lowers melting points and removes bubbles (fining), improving clarity.
    Textiles: Helps dyes penetrate fibers evenly and prevents corrosion in dyeing vats.
    Chemical Processing: Used in the Kraft process for paper pulping, producing sodium silicate, and as a neutral salt in synthesis.
    Laboratory: A common drying agent for organic liquids and a reagent for protein precipitation.
    Energy Storage: Incorporated into thermal tiles for passive solar heating due to its phase change properties.
    Medical/Food (Food Grade): Used in some food processing (e.g., sugar refining) and historically as a laxative (Glauber���s salt).

    • Sodium sulfate decahydrate is used as a laboratory reagent to precipitate protein.
    • It is largely used as filler in powdered home laundry detergents.
    • It facilitates in leveling, reducing negative charges on fibers, thereby allows dye to penetrate evenly.
    • It avoids the corrosion of stainless steel vessels used in dyeing
