General description

Anhydrous sodium sulfide 98% is a chemical compound that appears as a yellow-to-white, crystalline solid with a strong odor of hydrogen sulfide. It is a highly reactive inorganic chalcogenide that acts as a reducing agent, making it an essential reagent in many chemical processes. Anhydrous sodium sulfide decomposes in water and forms an alkaline solution. Our anhydrous sodium sulfide is rigorously dried for use in applications sensitive to moisture or water.

Application

Anhydrous sodium sulfide 98% is commonly used in the pulp and paper industry for the manufacture of paper products. It is used as a bleaching agent and for the removal of lignin from wood pulp. In the textile industry, it is used as a dyeing agent for cotton and wool fibers. In the leather industry, anhydrous sodium sulfide 98% is used for the removal of hair and feathers from animal hides, and as a tanning agent. Additionally, it is used in the production of sulfur dyes, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals. Its reducing properties also make it useful in the synthesis of organic compounds, such as thioesters and thioketones. Anhydrous sodium sulfide 98% is also widely used in mineral floatation processes, where it helps separate valuable minerals from their ores.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
