Sodium Hypophosphite as a white, water-soluble material and lists uses including pharmaceutical applications and nickel plating; sodium phosphinate also use as a reducing agent in electroless nickel plating and as a chemical/laboratory reagent.
RXSOL Sodium Hypophosphite is a high-purity inorganic reducing agent supplied in solid form for industrial, chemical-processing, surface-treatment and specialty applications. It is also known as sodium phosphinate and is available in anhydrous and monohydrate forms depending on grade and specification.
The product is typically supplied as a white crystalline or granular, water-soluble material. Sodium hypophosphite is valued particularly for its reducing properties and is widely used in electroless nickel plating, chemical processing and laboratory applications.
Antioxidant and stabilizer: It can be added to pharmaceutical formulations to help maintain stability and extend shelf life.
Controlled release: It acts as a controlled-release agent for certain drugs
Buffer: It can be used as a buffer in drug preparations.
Historical use: Historically, it was used in elixirs and tonics for conditions like tuberculosis.
Antioxidant and stabilizer:It is used as an additive to prevent oxidation and preserve the quality of certain food products.
Antimicrobial properties: Emerging research suggests it has potential antimicrobial and anti-botulinal properties, which could allow its use in cured meat products
Dietary Information : The product is suitable for the following nutrition: Kosher, Halal, Vegetarian, Vegan
Allergen Free, GMO Free, Irradiation Free
One of the important industrial applications of sodium hypophosphite is as a reducing agent in electroless nickel-plating processes.
It participates in the chemical reduction process that enables nickel deposition without requiring the conventional external electrical current used in electroplating. Sodium hypophosphite is documented as a reducing agent for electroless nickel plating on metals and plastics.
Typical industries include:
Engineering components
Automotive components
Metal finishing
Machinery parts
Electronic components
Precision components
Surface-treatment industries
Sodium hypophosphite can be used as a reducing reagent and chemical intermediate in specialty chemical manufacturing and laboratory processes.
Its reducing characteristics make sodium hypophosphite useful in selected surface-treatment and metal-finishing formulations, particularly those associated with electroless deposition processes.
Sodium hypophosphite is used as a chemical reagent in laboratory and analytical applications where its reducing properties are required.
The material can serve as a raw material or process reagent in selected specialty chemical formulations and manufacturing processes.
RXSOL Sodium Hypophosphite is generally supplied as a white, odourless crystalline or granular solid. Sodium hypophosphite monohydrate is described by PubChem as a white hygroscopic/deliquescent crystalline material.
Because the material can absorb moisture, appropriate moisture-protected packaging and storage are recommended.
Sodium hypophosphite is water soluble, making it convenient for preparation of aqueous process solutions where required.
The exact solubility profile can vary with temperature, grade and whether the product is supplied in anhydrous or hydrated form.
RXSOL Sodium Hypophosphite can be offered according to customer requirements, including suitable industrial or specialty grades.
Typical specification parameters may include:
Assay
Moisture / loss on drying
pH of solution
Insoluble matter
Phosphite content
Phosphate content
Heavy metals
Iron
Calcium
Other trace impurities
