Application | Sodium pyrosulfite is white or yellow crystalline powder or small crystals, with a strong SO2 odor, specific gravity of 1.4, soluble in water, acidic aqueous solution, and strong acid contact with SO2 emitted corresponding salts, long-standing air, then oxidized to Na2S2O6, so the product can not last. Higher than 150 degrees Celsius, that is, decomposition of SO2. |
