SODIUM SULFIDE (FLAKE) is a chemical product and Arena Petro Gas is in position to supply and export it directly from the top producers through its trading services according to the following specification and technical properties.
Sodium sulfide (Na2S) is an inorganic compound with the formula Na2S that has an antifluorite structure. It is a yellow, water-soluble solid that gives strongly alkaline solutions when dissolved in water. It has a density of 1.856 g/cm3 and a melting point of 1176 °C. When exposed to moist air, it emits hydrogen sulfide, a toxic and flammable gas that smells like rotten eggs.
Sodium sulfide has various uses in different industries. Some of the main applications are:
- In the leather industry, it uses as a dehairing agent for hides and skins.
- In the paper industry, it uses as a pulping agent for lignin removal and as a bleaching agent for kraft pulp.
- In the textile industry, it uses as a reducing agent for sulfur dyes and as a mordant for dyeing cotton and wool.
- In the mining industry, it uses as a flotation agent for copper, lead, zinc, and iron ores.
- In the chemical industry, it uses as a precursor for the synthesis of other sulfur compounds, such as sodium thiosulfate, sodium hydrosulfide, and sodium polysulfide.
