Sodium Sulphate Sodium Sulphite
Sodium sulfate and sodium sulfite as the core of the world
are known as sodium sulfate and sodium sulfite. Both have their own strengths in various uses.
Sodium sulfate has a peaceful nature. In the field of industry, it is often used as an auxiliary. In the papermaking industry, it can help separate fibers and make paper uniform and dense; in the production of glass, it can reduce the melting point, make the melting work easy, and the glass texture is more clear. In medicine, it can be used as a laxative to help the human body to be transparent and drain the viscera.
Sodium sulfite is also unusual. It is reducing, and in the food industry, it is often used as a preservative and antioxidant. It can protect the color of fruits and vegetables, prevent their browning, and protect the taste of food, prolonging their taste. In chemical industry, it can remove residual chlorine in water to prevent it from being harmful, and in some reactions, it acts as an intermediate medium to promote the reaction.
Although both are sodium salts, their properties are different, and their uses are also different. Practitioners should carefully observe their properties and make good use of them in order to obtain their benefits and avoid their harm, which is beneficial to all things.
