Description
In organic synthesis, analytical workflows, and sample preparation, residual water in organic solvents can significantly affect reaction yield, chromatographic resolution, and reproducibility. Sodium sulfate anhydrous (Na₂SO₄, ACS reagent grade) is a high-purity inorganic salt widely used as a standard laboratory drying agent for efficient removal of trace moisture from organic phases.
This product, also referred to as sodium sulfate Na2SO4, forms a chemically stable, highly water-soluble crystalline powder that rapidly binds water molecules to form hydrated salts. It is commonly used in chemical synthesis, protein crystallization studies, hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC), and general analytical chemistry applications where moisture control is critical.
With ≥99.0% assay purity and ultra-low impurity levels, this ACS-grade sodium sulfate ensures consistent performance across laboratory and industrial workflows, supporting reproducible experimental outcomes and high-confidence analytical results.
