Applications of Sodium Sulfate, Anhydrous (CAS No. 7757-82-6)

Industrial Applications

In industrial applications, Sodium Sulfate, Anhydrous is primarily used as a functional auxiliary material that supports stable and reproducible manufacturing processes. In detergent and cleaning product formulations, it serves as a filler and carrier that improves powder flowability, enables uniform distribution of active surfactants, and ensures consistent dosing during large-scale production. Within chemical manufacturing, the product is valued as an inert drying agent, effectively removing residual moisture from solvents and reaction mixtures without interfering with sensitive chemical reactions. In the glass and ceramics industry, Lohtragon^® V17 | Type 69 contributes to improved melting behavior, enhanced homogeneity, and reduced bubble formation. Additionally, in textile and dyeing processes, it helps regulate ionic strength in dye baths, enabling even dye uptake and consistent coloration results.

Sodium Sulfate, Anhydrous is widely used in technical and industrial processes:

• Detergents & Cleaning Agents: Acts as a filler and processing aid to improve flowability and dosing consistency.
• Chemical Processing: Used as a drying agent and inert carrier in synthesis and formulation processes.
• Glass & Ceramics Industry: Supports melting behavior and improves product homogeneity.

Food Applications

Authorised as a food additive under E 514(i), Sodium Sulfate Anhydrous is used for technological and processing-related purposes. It functions as a firming agent, acidity regulator, and carrier substance. Sodium Sulfate is commonly used as a carrier for coloring agents. Due to its chemical stability and lack of taste or odor, it is sensorially neutral and enables the homogeneous distribution of minor ingredients in dry food premixes without influencing the sensory characteristics of the final product.

Pharmaceutical Applications

Sodium Sulfate, Anhydrous is widely used in pharmaceuticals both as an active ingredient and as an excipient. As an active ingredient, it is primarily employed in osmotic laxatives, where it binds water in the intestine to facilitate bowel movement and support digestion. As an excipient, it serves as a filler, carrier, or stabilizing agent in tablets, capsules, and liquid formulations, helping to regulate ion concentration and maintain the chemical stability of sensitive active substances. During manufacturing, Sodium Sulfate, Anhydrous also aids crystallization and drying processes, acting as an inert agent that optimizes solution properties and processing performance without affecting the efficacy of the final formulation.

Cosmetic Applications

In cosmetic formulations, Sodium Sulfate, Anhydrous is valued for its inert nature, compatibility, and formulation stability. It is commonly used to adjust viscosity and texture in creams, lotions, gels, and cleansing products, helping manufacturers achieve consistent rheological properties. As a carrier and bulking agent, it supports the uniform distribution of pigments, fragrances, and cosmetic active ingredients. In addition, it contributes to formulation stability and batch-to-batch consistency, while also facilitating handling and dosing during cosmetic manufacturing processes.

In cosmetic formulations, Sodium Sulfate, Anhydrous is valued for its stability and inert behavior:

• Viscosity Control: Helps adjust texture and consistency in creams and lotions.
• Carrier & Bulking Agent: Ensures homogeneous distribution of active ingredients.
• Formulation Stabilizer: Contributes to stable and reproducible cosmetic products.

Biopharmaceutical Applications

Sodium Sulfate is an important excipient in biopharmaceutical and biotechnological processes. It enables controlled adjustment of process conditions, particularly in complex process steps, including targeted modification of pH and ionic strength. Sodium Sulfate thus contributes significantly to the stabilization of sensitive biomolecules such as proteins and enzymes.
Sodium Sulfate is used in separation and purification processes, especially in chromatographic applications or precipitation and crystallization processes, to significantly improve selectivity, yield, and reproducibility. Due to its high chemical stability, good solubility, and broad regulatory acceptance, it is ideal for use in GMP-compliant manufacturing processes supporting robust and scalable process control.

Main functions of Sodium Sulfate, Anhydrous:

• Process aid: Adjustment and stabilization of pH and ionic strength, as well as increased efficiency in separation and purification processes.
• Stabilizer: Protection and stabilization of sensitive products such as proteins and enzymes across various process steps.
