anhydrous sodium pyrophosphate is a five-color transparent crystal or white powder. The relative density is 2. 45 and the melting point is 988 ℃. Soluble in water, aqueous solution is alkaline. Sodium pyrophosphate decahydrate is a colorless monoclinic crystal or crystalline powder. The relative density is 1. 824 and the melting point is 79.5 ℃. Soluble in water, alkaline aqueous solution, insoluble in ethanol. Weathering in the air. Water of crystallization was lost by heating to 100 °c.
soda ash was added to a neutralizer, heated and dissolved with stirring, and then phosphoric acid was added for neutralization reaction to produce disodium hydrogen phosphate. The pH at the end of the reaction was controlled to be 8.2 to 8.6. After decolorization and filtration, the disodium hydrogen phosphate solution is concentrated and dried, and then sent to the blade mechanism to form a sheet, and then sent to the polymerization furnace to heat and polymerize to generate sodium pyrophosphate. After cooling, crushing, screening, prepared anhydrous sodium pyrophosphate products. Alternatively, disodium hydrogen phosphate is heated at 200-300 °c to obtain anhydrous sodium pyrophosphate. Anhydrous sodium pyrophosphate was dissolved in water and concentrated to give crystalline sodium pyrophosphate.
sodium pyrocarbonate is used as water softener and boiler scale inhibitor in the field of water treatment.
Sodium Pyrophosphate has mild irritation to skin and mucous membranes. Inhalation or cannibalism can cause severe Diarrhea. Workers who produce and use sodium pyrophosphate should wear protective gear. The production workshop should be installed with air supply and exhaust. Should be stored in a dry, ventilated warehouse. Strict protection against sun and rain. It is not allowed to be stored and mixed with toxic and hazardous substances.
