Product Specifications

Sodium Sulfite is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na₂SO₃ and CAS Number 7757-83-7 for the anhydrous form. It is commonly supplied as a white crystalline powder or granular solid and is soluble in water. Hydrated forms are also available and may have different physical properties and CAS numbers.

Sodium Sulfite is valued for its reducing properties and ability to react with oxygen and other oxidising substances. Common laboratory applications include analytical chemistry procedures, preparation of sulfite-containing solutions, oxidation-reduction studies, and research involving sulfur compounds. It is also used as an oxygen scavenger in water treatment, a reducing agent in specialised chemical processes, and in photographic processing and various industrial applications.

Its chemical properties and reducing capabilities make Sodium Sulfite useful in analytical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and general laboratory research. The appropriate grade, purity, and hydration form should be selected according to the requirements of the intended application.

KSFE Malaysia supplies laboratory chemicals and scientific products for research institutions, educational facilities, and general laboratory applications.

Safety Note: Sodium Sulfite should be handled carefully to avoid generating or inhaling airborne dust, which may cause irritation to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. Contact with acids may release sulfur dioxide gas, which can cause respiratory irritation and other harmful effects. Individuals with sulfite sensitivity may experience adverse reactions. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and skin, use appropriate personal protective equipment, and handle the material in a suitable, well-ventilated area. Store it in a tightly closed container away from acids and incompatible substances. Follow the supplier's Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for proper handling, storage, and disposal.
