Applications:

  • Food Industry: Used as a preservative, acidity regulator (E262), and flavor enhancer in various food products.

  • Pharmaceuticals: Acts as a buffering agent in drug formulations to stabilize pH levels.

  • Water Treatment: Used to control pH and neutralize acidic wastewater in industrial and municipal water treatment processes.

  • Textile Industry: Applied in dyeing and printing processes as a buffering agent to control pH levels.

  • Leather Industry: Used in tanning processes to adjust pH and improve leather quality.

  • Chemical Industry: Serves as an intermediate in various chemical reactions and formulations.

  • De-icing Agent: Functions as an eco-friendly alternative to chloride-based de-icing salts for roads and runways.

How It Works:

  1. Acts as a pH buffer, maintaining stability in various formulations.

  2. Enhances food preservation by inhibiting microbial growth.

  3. Controls acidity in pharmaceuticals for better drug stability.

  4. Neutralizes acidic wastewater in water treatment applications.

  5. Improves dye absorption in textiles and enhances leather processing.

Production Method & Raw Materials:
Sodium Acetate Trihydrate is produced by neutralizing acetic acid (CH3COOH) with sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The solution is then crystallized and dried to obtain high-purity trihydrate form.

Safety & Handling Precautions:

  • Store in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from strong oxidizers.

  • Use protective gloves and eyewear when handling large quantities.

  • Ensure proper sealing to prevent moisture absorption.
