 Product Description

Sodium ferrocyanide, also known as sodium hexacyanoferrate(II), is a compound with a wide range of uses primarily due to its ability to form stable complexes with metal ions. It is commonly used in the textile industry for the fixation of dyes onto fabrics, ensuring colorfastness during washing and exposure to light. Additionally, sodium ferrocyanide has applications in the mining industry as a flotation agent, aiding in the separation of valuable minerals from ores. Its effectiveness in these areas stems from its unique chemical properties, which allow it to act as a reducing agent and complexing agent simultaneously.

 

Application

In practical applications, sodium ferrocyanide is employed in dye fixing processes within the textile industry, enhancing the durability of colors on fabrics. Moreover, it plays a crucial role in mineral processing, where it helps in the flotation of sulfide ores, facilitating the extraction of metals such as copper, zinc, and lead. Its versatility in chemical reactions and its role in improving industrial processes highlight its importance in these sectors.
