Sodium Sulfide

Sodium Sulfide is a yellowish inorganic solid salt with a characteristic sulfur odor. It is highly soluble in water, forming strongly alkaline solutions. It is a hygroscopic compound with strong reducing properties and high reactivity with acids and oxidizing agents, releasing hydrogen sulfide. When exposed to humid air, it gradually oxidizes, forming thiosulfates and sulfates.

In industry, Sodium Sulfide is widely used in leather tanning processes, in the reduction of metal oxides, and in the pulp and paper industry, where it acts as a reducing agent and chemical auxiliary in clarification and sulfur compound recovery processes. (CAS: 1313-82-2)
