General specification of Sodium Sulphate
Sodium sulphate, also known as sulfate of soda, is the inorganic compound with formula Na2SO4 as well as several related hydrates. All forms are white solids that are highly soluble in water.
Usage of sodium sulfate
Sodium sulphate is used to dry organic liquids. As a filler in powdered home laundry detergents. As a fining agent which removes small air bubbles from molten glass. Glauber’s salt, the decahydrate, was used as a laxative which removes certain drugs such as acetaminophen from the body.
Decahydrate sodium sulfate, known as the mineral mirabilite, widely used by chemical industry. Anhydrous sodium sulfate, known as the rare mineral thernadite, used as a drying agent in organic synthesis It is also known as Glauber’s salt.
Sodium Sulfate mainly used for the manufacture of detergents and in the Kraft process of paper pulping. Sodium Sulfate for Medicine and drugs making (Colloid or Fanon salt), Sodium Sulfate for animals feeding, Sodium Sulfate in fertilizer, Sodium Sulfate for feed supplement, Sodium Sulfate for metal melting, Sodium Sulfate for water treatment, Sodium Sulfate for leather industries
