Sodium Sulfate Glauber Salt Na2so4 Soluble Dehydrating Agent Digestion Catalyst For Nitrogen Determination

Sodium Sulfate used as an analytical reagent, such as a dehydrating agent, a digestion catalyst for nitrogen determination, and an interference inhibitor in atomic absorption spectrometry analysis .

Sodium Sulfate, Glauber Salt : 

scientifically known as sodium sulfate (Na₂SO₄), is also called anhydrous mirage or anhydrous sodium sulfate. It is an inorganic compound that appears as white, odorless, bitter-tasting crystals or powder. Mirabilite has extensive applications in both industrial and chemical fields. It is used in textile dye auxiliaries, the glass industry, the paper industry, detergents and cleaning agents, as one of the components of chemical fertilizers in agriculture, as an additive in drilling fluids in oil extraction, and in water treatment to soften hard water.

As an important producer and exporter of mirabilite, China's market dynamics have a significant impact on global trade. According to customs data, from January 2018 to March 2024, the total export volume of mirabilite from China was 237,11,257,167 kilograms, increasing from 3.5 billion kilograms in 2018 to 4.057 billion kilograms in 2023, showing a stable upward trend overall. The total export value dropped from 330 million US dollars in 2018 to 310 million US dollars in 2023. Although the decline was not significant, the overall changes in export volume and value were not completely synchronized, indicating that the unit price fluctuated. This might be influenced by factors such as international prices, exchange rate fluctuations, and cost changes
