Applications and VersatilitySodium Formates principal applications include leather tanning, de-icing, textile printing and dyeing, oil drilling mud additive, and as a reducing agent. Its stability and low toxicity make it suitable across diverse industrial sectors in South Africa. Its high solubility and fast dissolving nature allow for use as a buffering or reducing agent and as a chemical synthesis building block. Widely supplied by manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers, it meets industrial grade standards.
Storage and HandlingThe product should be stored at room temperature in its original, sealed woven bags with inner liners to prevent moisture absorption. Thanks to its non-hazardous classification and low toxicity, no special transport restrictions apply. Sodium Formate retains its properties for up to 24 months if proper storage is ensured, providing reliable performance throughout its shelf life.
FAQs of Sodium Formate 92% 95%98%:
Q: How is Sodium Formate typically used in industrial applications?
