Sodium Tungstate

Sodium Tungstate (CAS 13472-45-2) is a high-purity inorganic salt, most commonly supplied as a white crystalline dihydrate solid that is readily soluble in water, and it serves as the primary industrial source of tungsten ions for tungsten metal, heteropolyacid catalysts, textile mordants and metallurgical refining. The compound is highly valued in the Mining and Metallurgy sectors for its role in the conversion of tungsten ores into high-performance alloys. Its high density and consistent chemical properties allow for precise control during the synthesis of specialty chemical reagents and pigments. In biological and agricultural research, it has gained attention as a specialized enzyme inhibitor and as a potential plant growth modifier. Its exceptional water solubility and stability under ambient conditions make it a versatile tool for laboratory analysis and specialized industrial dyeing.
