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.
