  • Sodium Thiosulfate Solutions Manufacturer in Oman

Oman Chemical is leading one Largest Supplier, Manufacture and Exporter of Sodium Thiosulfate Solutions in Oman, Sultan Qaboos, Qulhat, Shannah, Duqm, Salalah, Sohar, Gulf of Oman,Khatmat Malaha, Suwaiq , Muscat, Hutchison, Alliwa, Rusayl Industrial Area, Sur, Nizwa and Buraimi Industrial Area.
Sodium Thiosulfate Solutions are almost exclusively used to standardize Iodine solutions or as back-titrants in titrations using Iodine. Solutions of Sodium Thiosulfate are most commonly standardized with Potassium Dichromate or Potassium Iodate solutions, which generate Iodine from Iodide. Starch indicator is typically used. The reaction with Iodine is:

I3- + 2 S2O32- → 3 I- + S4O62- (Dithionite ion)

Titrations with standard Sodium Thiosulfate solution are best conducted in the pH 5 - 9 range. Since this is not always possible, the titrations should be conducted rapidly and with adequate stirring to insure rapid reaction of the Thiosulfate, thus minimizing any acid-accelerated decomposition. This will also minimize the acid-catalyzed oxidation of Iodide (usually present in a titration involving Thiosulfate) to Iodate, which could lead to decreased accuracy.
Sodium Thiosulfate solutions are subject to bacterial decomposition and chemical deterioration. Sodium Thiosulfate solutions decompose in acid solution resulting in the evolution of Sulfur Dioxide gas and precipitation of elemental Sulfur. Contact with Carbon Dioxide in the air can produce the acidity leading to this decomposition, which is faster in more dilute Thiosulfate solutions. This allows time for residual impurities, present in even the ACS Reagent Grade material, to react with the Thiosulfate so that a steady concentration can be reached. Preservatives are also added to prevent bacterial growth, control pH, and increase shelf life.

  • Sodium Sulfide Solution Manufacturer in Oman

Oman Chemical is leading one Largest Supplier, Manufacture and Exporter of Sodium Sulfide Solution in Oman, Sultan Qaboos, Qulhat, Shannah, Duqm, Salalah, Sohar, Gulf of Oman,Khatmat Malaha, Suwaiq , Muscat, Hutchison, Alliwa, Rusayl Industrial Area, Sur, Nizwa and Buraimi Industrial Area.
Sodium Sulfide Solution Is mainly used for first stage precipitation of copper. The product is usually sold in solid form and converted by the user to a 10% aqueous solution. This chemical is attractive partly because of its relatively low price and also in terms of its very effective metal precipitation properties. Against this, sodium sulphide suffers from major drawbacks, both in terms of environmental impact and its use in the workplace. Classified as an environmentally hazardous species, toxic hydrogen sulphide gas (H2S) can be released during its use, as well as extremely noxious odours, for example during disposal of spent solution. Release of hydrogen sulphide during the use of this chemical can also cause tarnishing or blackening of the surface of silver-plated components in the vicinity as well as other problems, not all of these being negligible.
Available Packing Size: 100, 250,  500, 1000 gram.

  • Aluminum Hydroxide Manufacturer

Oman Chemical is leading one Largest Supplier, Manufacture and Exporter of Sewage Chemicals like Aluminum Hydroxide in Oman, Sultan Qaboos, Qulhat, Shannah, Duqm, Salalah, Sohar, Gulf of Oman,Khatmat Malaha, Suwaiq , Muscat, Hutchison, Alliwa, Rusayl Industrial Area, Sur, Nizwa and Buraimi Industrial Area.
Aluminum Hydroxide is an inorganic salt used as an antacid. It is a basic compound that acts by neutralizing hydrochloric acid in gastric secretions. Subsequent increases in pH may inhibit the action of pepsin. An increase in bicarbonate ions and prostaglandins may also confer cytoprotective effects.
Application:

  •  In one process of water purification, for example, aluminum sulfate, Al2(SO4)3, or alum (usually potassium aluminum sulfate, KAl(SO4)2), is mixed with lime (calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2) in a container of water to be purified. The reaction between these compounds results in the formation of a gelatinous precipitate aluminum hydroxide. As the precipitate settles out of solution, it adsorbs on its surface particles of dirt and bacteria that were suspended in the impure water, which can then be removed by filtering off the aluminum hydroxide precipitate.
  • The ability of aluminum hydroxide to adsorb substances on its surface explains a number of its other applications. It is used in a number of chemical operations, for example, as a filtering medium and in ion-exchange and chromatography devices.
  • Aluminum hydroxide is popular as an antacid. It behaves as a base, reacting with and neutralizing excess stomach acid (hydrochloric acid) to bring relief from "heartburn." A few of the more common commercial antacids containing aluminum hydroxide are Amphojel, Di-Gel, Gelusil, and Maalox. Ingredients can change without notice, however, so the labels should always be checked.
  • Aluminum hydroxide is also used as a mordant in dyeing. In most cases, the compound is precipitated out of a water solution onto the fibers to be dyed. The material is then immersed into the dye bath. The color of the final product depends on the combination of dye and mordant used in the process. A similar process is used in the manufacture of certain paint pigments.
  • Additional uses of aluminum hydroxide include the manufacture of aluminosilicate glass, a high melting point glass used in cooking utensils, the waterproofing of fabrics, and the production of fire clay, paper, pottery, and printing inks.

  • Turpentine Supplier in Oman

Oman Chemical is leading one Largest Supplier, Manufacture and Exporter of Turpentine in Oman, Sultan Qaboos, Qulhat, Shannah, Duqm, Salalah, Sohar, Gulf of Oman,Khatmat Malaha, Suwaiq , Muscat, Hutchison, Alliwa, Rusayl Industrial Area, Sur, Nizwa and Buraimi Industrial Area.
Turpentine is a fluid obtained by the distillation of resin harvested from living trees, mainly pines. It is mainly used as a solvent, and as a source of material for organic syntheses.One of the earliest sources of turpentine was the terebinth or turpentine tree, a Mediterranean tree related to the pistachio. Important pines for turpentine production include: maritime pine, Aleppo pine , Masson's pine , Sumatran pine , longleaf pine, loblolly pine  and ponderosa pine. Crude oleoresin collected from wounded trees may be evaporated by steam distillation in a copper still. Molten rosin remains in the still bottoms after turpentine has been evaporated and recovered from a condenser.Turpentine may alternatively be condensed from destructive distillation of pine wood. Oleoresin may also be extracted from shredded pine stumps, roots, and slash using the light end of the heavy naphtha fraction (boiling between 90 and 115 °C or 195 and 240 °F) from a crude oil refinery.
Application:

  • The two primary uses of turpentine in industry are as a solvent and as a source of materials for organic synthesis. As a solvent, turpentine is used for thinning oil-based paints, for producing varnishes, and as a raw material for the chemical industry.
  • As a source of raw materials in the synthesis of fragrant chemical compounds. Commercially used camphor, linalool, alpha-terpineol, and geraniol are all usually produced from alpha-pinene and beta-pinene, which are two of the chief chemical components of turpentine.
  • Turpentine and petroleum distillates such as coal oil and kerosene have been used medicinally since ancient times, as topical and sometimes internal home remedies.
  • Turpentine is also added to many cleaning and sanitary products due to its antiseptic properties and its "clean scent".

  • Alum(Powder form) Manufacturer in Oman

Oman Chemical is leading one Largest Supplier, Manufacture and Exporter of Sewage Chemicals like Alum(Powder form) in Oman, Sultan Qaboos, Qulhat, Shannah, Duqm, Salalah, Sohar, Gulf of Oman,Khatmat Malaha, Suwaiq , Muscat, Hutchison, Alliwa, Rusayl Industrial Area, Sur, Nizwa and Buraimi Industrial Area.
Alum (previously known as alumen) is a class of chemical compound that naturally produces itself in minerals like kalinite, alunite, and leucite. These chemicals are then treated with sulfuric acid to obtain the crystallized alum that is more renowned in the circle of commoners. It is colorless, odorless, bitter and acidic in taste. Although many types of alums are there namely soda alum, ammonium alum, chrome alum, selenate alums, and aluminum alum; it is the potash alum that we generally refer to as alum, whether in crystallized form or powdered form. Potash alum is used for various commercial purposes and more commonly for home remedies. It is prepared by dissolving water in potassium sulfate. The solution then goes through the process of evaporation after which it is precipitated to form alum crystals. These crystals are then further heated to drive away their water content and finally, what we get is the powdered form of alum.This powder has immense uses attached to it. Read further to get detailed information about the uses of alum powder.
Application:

  • Alum is frequently used in the purification of drinking water in industries. It is dissolved in the water tanks which make the colloidal parts heavy so that they can easily be removed. This makes way for further purification of water.
  • It is most commonly and frequently used as an after-shave. Applying powdered alum mixed with a little water or in the crystallized form over the face while it’s still a little wet, aid in blood clot on the minor cuts that occur from shaving.
  • During the end of 16th century, it was commonly used as a base in many skin whiteners and in treatments for sunburns.
  • Alum powder is known to keep the body odor in check as it is easily soluble in water and eliminates the odor causing bacteria. This explains as to why it is used as one of the primary ingredients in the manufacturing of deodorant sticks.
  • Alum is used as a soothing agent to be applied on the freshly waxed skin.
  • Alum is used as a readily available remedy for the treatment of mouth ulcers. Applying a pinch of alum powder on the ulcers will relieve the pain and heal them.
  • It is also used as an ingredient in many toothpastes and toothpowders as it helps in maintaining a good oral hygiene.
  • Alum is used as a preservative when making pickles out of fruits and vegetables as it maintains the crispiness in them.
  • Many baking powders involve alum powder as an ingredient for providing the acidic content in them.
  • Alum is consistently used for its flame retardant properties as it’s found in many fire extinguishers and is also used with clothes, wood, and paper materials to increase their resistance to fire.
  • Alum is also known for its acne fighting properties when mixed with other ingredients like rosewater or egg white.
