SODIUM SULFATE DOMESTIC PRODUCT

General Information

Na2SO4 is a white, water-soluble, water soluble, sodium salt, which is not decomposed and does not decompose with oxidizing or reducing agents at normal temperature and at normal temperature. Sodium salt of sulfuric acid. Sulfate contains no toxic mineral, such as arsenic, lead, zinc, chromium, which is present in chemical methods produced by sulphate. It is preferably more suitable. It is a large commodity chemical product with annual production of 6 million tons. In nature Sodium Sulphate is composed of many minerals, but the most important minerals in terms of economic and operability are Mirabillite, Tenardite, Globerite, Glaresite and Blödit.

Production and Reactions

It is obtained as a by-product (Synthetic) from the salty and bitter waters lakes, the mineral deposits in the solid state and the chemical processes. Tenardite Decahydrate (Na2SO4 · 10H2O) is in its natural form, known as mirabilite mineral.

Na2SO4.10H2O + Heat (32.4 [deg.] C)? Na2SO4 (Industrial use)
It is a by-product of HCl production from sodium chloride by sulfuric acid treatment. It can be reduced to sodium sulfide at high temperature.

Sodium sulphate can be obtained by reaction with appropriate conditions such as potassium sulfate, aluminum sulfate, sodium silicate, sodium sulfide.

Usage areas
