About Sodium Sulphide Flakes 60%

Sodium Sulphide Flakes 60% are widely used as a sulphur source and reducing agent in various industrial processes, particularly in textile dyeing and leather tanning. This grade of sodium sulphide is supplied as solid flakes with a minimum content of 60%, making it effective for sulfidizing applications. In textile industries, it facilitates the removal of excess dye and the fixation of certain colors by acting as a reducing agent. In leather processing, sodium sulphide flakes break down hair and other protein-based impurities during unhairing and soaking stages. It also finds use in water treatment and chemical synthesis. Finstar supplies sodium sulphide flakes in 25 kg bags, ensuring safe packaging for storage in cool, dry environments. Proper handling is essential to prevent exposure to moisture and air, which can degrade product quality. Procurement teams benefit from reliable delivery to Kenya and neighboring regions, with documentation and batch traceability supporting operational quality standards. This chemical must be handled with appropriate personal protective equipment to ensure workplace safety. Finstar Chemicals supports industrial users with technical advice on application dosages, storage conditions, and safety compliance relevant to local climate conditions. Please consult our technical team for guidance on specific formulation or process integration involving sodium sulphide flakes.
