Properties and Usage:
Sodium thioglycolate is a multifunctional chemical reagent with strong reducing properties and chemical reaction ability. It is used in cosmetics, textiles, pharmaceuticals, leather processing, water treatment, laboratory research and mining.
1. Cosmetic industry
Depilatory products: Sodium thioglycolate is used as an active ingredient in depilatories to effectively decompose keratin in hair and facilitate hair removal.
2. Textile industry
Dyeing and printing: As a reducing agent, sodium thioglycolate is used to remove old dyes on textiles, improve dyeing uniformity and color depth, and ensure dyeing quality and stability.
3. Pharmaceutical industry
Drug synthesis intermediate: Sodium thioglycolate participates in the chemical synthesis of certain drugs. As an intermediate, it generates drugs containing thioglycolic acid structure, which provides strong support for product research and development in the pharmaceutical industry.
4. Chemical synthesis
Reducing agents and reagents: In organic synthesis, sodium thioglycolate is used as an important reducing agent and reagent in various chemical reactions, especially in the synthesis of organic sulfur compounds, providing necessary chemical reaction conditions and support.
5. Leather processing
Dehairing and softening treatment: In the leather industry, sodium thioglycolate can effectively remove hair from raw leather, making the subsequent processing process smoother and improving the processing efficiency and quality of leather.
6. Water treatment
Reducing agent: Sodium thioglycolate is used as a reducing agent in the water treatment process, which can effectively remove chlorine from water and improve water quality.
7. Mining application
Floatation depressant: Sodium thioglycolate is used as a depressant for copper and magnesia in the flotation of copper-molybdenum ore, especially in the cyanide-free flotation of molybdenite. As an environmentally friendly and pollution-free mineral processing product, it replaces highly toxic substances such as sodium cyanide. It effectively and selectively inhibits copper and sulfur that coexist with molybdenite, and plays a positive role in environmental protection and the safety of production areas.
Storage conditions: Keep in a dry place, away from light, and away from flammable substances.
Packing: This product is packed in 25kg Cardboard drums or bags, and it can also be customized according to customers' requirements
