Sodium Sulfite, Anhydrous, 98%
Sodium Sulfite, Anhydrous (Na₂SO₃), is a high-purity technical-grade compound with 98% Na₂SO₃ content, widely valued for its reducing and oxygen-scavenging properties. Commonly used in water treatment, it protects steam boilers and washing machines from corrosion by reacting with dissolved oxygen to form sodium sulfate. In the photographic industry, it prevents developer solutions from oxidizing and facilitates the removal of fixer from photo-paper and film. The textile industry utilizes Sodium Sulfite as a bleaching, desulfurizing, and dechlorinating agent, while the paper industry employs it in various processes. Additionally, it is used as a preservative to prevent discoloration in dried fruits and meats. Sodium Sulfite also functions as a reagent in sulfonation and sulfomethylation reactions. With a 98% purity level and low impurity content, this versatile compound is essential for numerous industrial and commercial applications.
