Sodium Thiosulfate
Sodium Thiosulfate (Na₂S₂O₃) – Versatile Reducing Agent for Photographic & Water Treatment Applications
- Overview
- Recommended Products
- Photographic Industry: Act as a fixing agent by removing unexposed silver halide through chemical complexation, ensuring permanent clarity.
- Water Treatment: Widely used for dechlorination, heavy metal removal, and oxidant neutralization due to its reducing properties, complexation ability, and low toxicity.
- Detergents: Improve cleaning by dechlorination, bleach stabilization, stain removal and color care, ideal for high-end/colored/delicate fabrics.
- Electroplating: Key for cyanide-free/precious metal plating and post-treatment with its low toxicity and strong complexing/reducing abilities.
