Sodium sulfite of industrial grade

TC BY 400069905.031-2006

Anhydrous sodium sulfite (sodium sulphite) is derived from crystallization of concentrated sulfite liquor or from dehydrating of crystalline sodium sulfite.

In accordance with TC BY 400069905.031-2006 (as per GOST 5644-75) sodium sulfite is produced in two grades: photographic (first grade) and technical one.

 

Identified use:

• leather industry (for tanning);

• pharmaceutical industry (manufacture of synthetic odorants);

• chemical industry (in manufacture of iodine, chlorine, caustic soda, viscose rayon fiber, synthetic detergents and chemical crop protection agents);

• textile industry (cotton fabric dyeing);

• pulp-and-paper industry (for enhancement of pulp resilience);

• flotation of nonferrous metal ores, chromiferous effluents neutralization, makeup demineralizer.

 

Packing and transportation:

• polypropylene bags with polyethylene inner layer (weighting 25 kg and 100 kg);

• disposable plastic big bags as МКР-1,0 or МКР-1,0М;

• disposable plastic big bags as МКР (weight 1000 kg)

Delivery by covered wagons.
