• Construction (additive in concrete and insulation)
• Fiber Glass (catalyst)
Electrochemical Nickel Plating and Electroless Nickel Plating with Sodium Hyposphosphite (SHP)
Sodium Hyposphosphite (SHP) is used in electrochemical nickel plating and the Electroless Nickel (EN) process. The EN process with Sodium Hyposphosphite Monohydrate produces a uniform plating thickness on metals and other materials, such as ceramics and plastics. Sodium hypophosphite is widely used as a reducing agent for the Electroless Nickel Plating in the electronics and automotive industry.
Industrial Applications
In chemical processing, Sodium Hypophosphite is used as a raw material for the production of hypophosphorous acid, as well as, a reducing agent and antioxidant. Sodium Hypophosphite is a polymerization catalyst for acrylic acid-based polymers. It is used as a stabilizer for polymers during extrusion and other thermal processing. Sodium Hypophosphite is used in the preparation of fire retardants and may be used as a partial fire retardant.
Water Treatment
Sodium Hypophosphite is used in water treatment to reduce the metal ion content in industrial wastewater prior to discharge. Sodium hypophosphite is an effective reducing agent for the removal of Nickel, Copper, and Iron. Sodium Hyposphosphite is a source of electrons used for resin regeneration of Ion Exchange Resins.
