Key Applications
Food Industry : Enhances salt & vinegar flavor in chips, acts as a preservative, and is used in pickling/sauces.
Textile Industry: Neutralizes sulfuric acid waste from dyeing, acts as a photoresist with dyes, and prevents static buildup on cotton.
Medical & Pharma: Buffers pH in IV fluids, oral rehydration, and dialysis solutions; replenishes sodium in hyponatremia.
Molecular Biology: Used with ethanol for DNA/RNA precipitation and as a buffer in enzyme assays.
Heating Pads: Key component in reusable hand warmers and “hot ice,” releasing heat as it crystallizes.
Leather Tanning: Used as a pickling agent in chrome tanning.
Rubber Industry: Inhibits chloroprene vulcanization for better synthetic rubber quality.
Construction: Functions as a concrete sealant to prevent water damage.
Agriculture: Helps preserve silage for longer storage.
It is also used in Deicing.
