Sodium Formate Industrial Grade is a white crystalline powder or granules used primarily in industrial applications requiring a buffering agent, de-icing agent, or chemical intermediate. It offers high purity suitable for various manufacturing processes but does not meet food-grade standards. This grade is widely applied in leather tanning, textile dyeing, concrete additives, and as a corrosion inhibitor in oil and gas industries.

Description

Sodium Formate Industrial Grade

Primary Uses

  • De-icing Agent 
    • Used as an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional road salt for de-icing and anti-icing of roads, runways, and bridges. 
  • Leather Tanning 
    • Acts as a buffering agent in chrome tanning processes to control pH and improve leather quality. 
  • Textile Industry 
    • Used in dyeing and printing processes as a buffering and fixing agent to enhance dye uptake and color fastness. 
  • Oil & Gas Industry 
    • Functions as a corrosion inhibitor in oilfield drilling fluids and gas sweetening processes. 
  • Concrete Additive 
    • Employed as a set retarder and plasticizer to improve concrete workability and curing. 

Secondary Uses

  • Chemical Intermediate 
    • Used in the synthesis of formic acid and other chemical compounds. 
  • Wastewater Treatment 
    • Helps in adjusting pH and removing heavy metals from industrial effluents. 
  • Paper Industry
    • Acts as a buffering agent during pulp and paper manufacturing.
