Sodium Thioglycolate ≥ 40% / Sodium Mercaptoacetate ≥ 96.5% Chemical appearance
Sodium Thioglycolate ≥ 40% or Sodium Mercaptoacetate has a light yellowish and sometimes dark color. It comes in a liquid form with a strong pungent odour and has a pH level between 7 to 11.
Chemical application and strength
Sodium Mercaptoacetate is a mining separator which is used mainly in the separation process of copper and molybdenum copper sulfide. It also acts as a galena inhibitor. It is also known as a powerful and effective depressant agent for copper sulfide which has gone through the separation process during considerable environment conditions. Great results are seen when this is used as a depressant instead of using sodium cyanide or sodium sulfide.
- Has the ability to enhance the recovery rate of various precious materials and metals during flotation.
- Store the product in a dry environment free from water and moisture. Keep it away from open flames, direct heat, and high temperatures.The compound contains both a carboxylic acid group and a thiol (mercaptan) group, which give it its characteristic chemical properties.
The compound also has other applications, including use as an acidity indicator and in nail-softening products. It can also serve as a “fallout remover” for removing iron oxide residues from steel surfaces, including steel rims.
