solid Sodium Formate Powder

Solid Sodium Formate Powder - Industrial Grade Chemical Solution for Multi-Industry Applications

Since 1988, Shanxi Zhaoyi Chemical Co., Ltd. has made solid sodium formate powder (CAS 141-53-7). It's dependable. We have a 27,000 m² manufacturing base. Every year, we can produce 150,000 tons. Our facility makes three grades. One is 92%. Another is 95%. The third is 98%. This white crystalline powder stays thermally stable up to 253°C, its melting point. Water solubility is high: 97g/100ml at 20°C. We hold ISO, KOSHER, and HALAL certifications. They guarantee constant quality for international markets. Our product works in oilfield drilling. Leather processing uses it too. Environmental protection gets a boost as well.

Key Features & Benefits

High Purity Performance

Our this product hits 98% purity. Demanding industrial processes? It handles them. The mix is precise. Your formulations will react the same way every time.

Reducing Capability

The formate ion structure delivers strong reducing power for precious metal recovery operations. Your metal precipitation processes become more efficient with lower chemical consumption.

Environmental Compatibility

This biodegradable organic salt has a lower Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) than acetate substitutes. You keep operating effectively. Strict discharge standards are still met.

Thermal Stability Advantage

Temperatures over 250°C will not break this substance down. It stays stable. Processing cycles leave its chemical behavior unchanged, and that helps when your application runs hot.

Non-Corrosive Chemistry

Salts made with chloride behave in another way. This compound keeps your equipment clear of electrochemical corrosion. Where metal is sensitive, that stretches how long your infrastructure lasts.

Technical Specifications

How It Works

Chemical Reduction Mechanism

The formate ion (HCOO⁻) gives up electrons during oxidation-reduction reactions. Metal ions get reduced thanks to that transfer. You see it at work in precipitation processes. It also matters for chrome fixing in leather.

Freezing Point Depression

Sodium formate dissolves in water, and ice crystals cannot form. The point where water freezes drops. For infrastructure work, deicing keeps working at temperatures as low as -18°C.

pH Buffering Action

When conditions are acidic, the compound keeps alkaline levels steady. Tanning and textile processes gain from this. pH stays in check. Dye uptake goes up, and chemical reactions run better.

Complexation Properties

Formate ions bind with metal cations in drilling fluids. The result is a stable complex. This keeps shale from hydrating and stops formation damage during oilfield operations.

Applications

Oilfield Drilling Operations

You can control wellbore pressure with brines that have no solids. They go up to 1.3 g/cm³. This material stops clay swelling in sensitive shale formations.

Leather Tanning Industry

With your chrome tanning, penetration and fixation rates come out higher. Leather gets more softness and even color from the reducing environment this creates.

Concrete Acceleration

Curing times get faster. Winter construction projects gain from that. Cold weather does not stop you from keeping pouring schedules. Structural integrity stays intact too.

Textile Printing & Dyeing

In vat dyeing, this compound acts as a reducing agent. Your fabric takes in more color when you use it. After washing, the shade holds up better too.

Snow & Ice Management

Deicing fluids for airport runways and bridge decks have to work with solid Sodium Formate Powder without corroding metal. On aluminum aircraft parts and steel reinforcement, they block chloride damage.

Solid Sodium Formate Powder vs Other Products

Certifications & Compliance

Our plant runs ISO quality management systems, so every batch comes out the same. KOSHER and HALAL certificates back up our production standards for food-grade use. Every product meets REACH rules for Europe, along with Chinese GB standards for chemical safety.

Packaging Options

Standard Moisture-Resistant Bags

Every bag weighs 25 kg. Kraft paper forms the outer layer. A polyethylene liner sits inside. While the product waits in storage, that liner keeps moisture out. Here a few layers do the job together. They keep the product safe as it moves through distribution chains.

Bulk Packaging Solutions

Jumbo bags come in custom sizes, from 500 kg up to 1000 kg. Big industrial buyers get the volumes they need. With the right configuration, you throw away less packaging. Handling costs drop too.

Container Loading

20-foot containers hold up to 25 metric tons with proper palletization. Our logistics team ensures optimal loading patterns for your shipping requirements.

Manufacturing Process

Raw Material Synthesis

Carbon monoxide goes through a reaction with sodium hydroxide. That step is how we control the purity we end up with. Batch after batch, the chemical composition comes out the same.

Crystallization Control

Keep the crystallization at a controlled temperature and the particles all come out the same size. The powder pours without clumping. It dissolves easily too.

Quality Screening

Filtration runs through a few stages. Impurities get pulled out at that point, before the last drying. Nothing moves to the warehouse until the lab tests are done.

Moisture Management

Inside controlled drying chambers, moisture falls below 1.0%. Packaging is where the hygroscopic properties get handled. That is what holds the product stable.

Why Choose Us

Three Decades Manufacturing Legacy

Since 1988 we have kept finding better ways to make our products. That work is why quality stays steady. Over the years we have built up technical know-how, and your supply chain gains from it.

Flexible Purity Grades

Purity comes in three grades: 92%, 95%, and 98%. Pick the one your application needs. You never pay for a grade you don't use when cost matters more than purity.

Global Distribution Network

Our goods ship to Europe and America, as well as to Asia. Logistics partners we have worked with for years handle those routes. Wherever you are, your delivery dates hold.

Technical Support Services

Our engineering team provides formulation guidance for your applications. You optimize chemical usage through expert consultation.

FAQ

Q: What sets 92% purity apart from the 98% grade? A: In the higher purity grades, fewer sodium carbonate and sodium chloride contaminants remain. Impurities affect performance in drilling fluids and critical applications, so we recommend the 98% grade.

Q: What is the best way to keep this material in storage over the long term? A: Put it in sealed containers. The warehouse should stay below 25°C, and relative humidity must not go above 60%. Stored that way, product quality holds steady for 24 months.

Q: Does it work as a replacement for chloride salts on every deicing task? A: On most infrastructure jobs it performs well. It keeps working down to -18°C. When arctic cold drops below -25°C, blended formulations may be needed.

Q: Is it suitable for food-grade work? A: Yes. Our KOSHER and HALAL certified grades meet food additive regulations. Contact us to ask for certificates of analysis and regulatory documentation.

Q: How small an order can you take? A: A single pallet is fine. That is 1 ton. We can also ship a full container load. The more you buy, the better the price. Our sales team has the numbers.
