Sodium Metabisulphite 25kg<\/p>\n
A 25kg bag of Sodium Metabisulphite is used across industries as a powerful preservative, antioxidant, and disinfectant, crucial in food & beverage (wine, dried fruit, seafood), water treatment (dechlorination), textiles\/pulp (bleaching), photography, and cosmetics, working by releasing sulfur dioxide to stop microbial growth and oxidation. <\/p>\n
Key Uses by Industry: <\/p>\n
Food & Beverage: Prevents spoilage, discoloration (anti-melanosis in seafood), and oxidation in juices, wines, beers, and dried fruits.
Water Treatment: Neutralizes chlorine and chloramines, making water safe for use or consumption.
Textile & Pulp: Acts as a bleaching agent and reduces chemicals in processing.
Photography: Used in traditional film development processes.
Cosmetics: Functions as a preservative and antioxidant in various formulations.
Pharmaceuticals: Serves as a preservative and reducing agent in some medical products.
Sugar Industry: Bleaches raw and brown sugars. <\/p>\n
How It Works:When mixed with water, it releases sulfur dioxide, a gas that inhibits bacteria and fungi, and prevents oxidation, effectively preserving products and sanitizing surfaces. <\/p>\n
Important
Considerations: Safety: Can cause allergic reactions in sulfite-sensitive individuals.<\/p>\n
Handling: Releases sulfur dioxide, requiring ventilation.Material Compatibility: Use glass or plastic containers for solutions, as it corrodes metal. <\/p>\n
