Sodium Naphthalene Sulfonate
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Sodium Naphthalene Sulfonate (SNF) is a powerful anionic dispersant and high-range water reducer. It is typically supplied as a brown powder or high-concentration liquid.
It functions by imparting a strong electrostatic charge to particles, preventing agglomeration in aqueous suspensions. This Technical Grade polymer is essential for achieving high flowability in cementitious systems.
SNF is highly compatible with various additives and remains stable across a wide temperature range. It is the industry standard for superplasticizers where high early strength in concrete is required.
APPLICATIONS
- Construction Materials: Used as a superplasticizer to reduce water content in concrete while maintaining workability.
- Agrochemicals: Acts as a dispersant and wetting agent in wettable powder (WP) and suspension concentrate (SC) formulations.
- Textile Dyeing: Employed as a leveling agent to ensure uniform dye distribution on synthetic fibers.
SAFETY & RISKS
Generally low toxicity; classified as Eye Irritation Category 2. Use dust masks and safety glasses to prevent mechanical irritation during handling of the powder.
PACKAGING
25 kg woven bags or 650 kg big bags.
