Main Applications
Pharmaceutical Industry: Sodium Thiocyanate (NaSCN) is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of antibiotics, vitamins and other pharmaceutical products, and also serves as a reagent for drug purity testing.
Textile Industry: It is an important dyeing auxiliary, used in the dyeing of synthetic fibers (such as polyester, nylon) to improve dye solubility and color fixation, making the fabric color brighter and more durable.
Metallurgical Industry: Used as a flotation agent in mineral processing, helping to separate valuable minerals from gangue; also used in the electroplating industry as an additive to improve the brightness and uniformity of electroplated layers.
Chemical Industry: As a raw material for the production of thiourea, cyanuric acid and other chemicals; also used as a solvent and catalyst in organic synthesis reactions.
Other Fields: Applied in the food industry as a food additive (in small amounts) for preservative and flavoring purposes; used in the water treatment industry to remove heavy metal ions from wastewater.

A MSDS download is available, providing detailed guidance on product safety, handling, storage, and emergency response to ensure safe use and transportation.
FAQ
Is Sodium Thiocyanate hygroscopic, and how to avoid agglomeration during storage?
Yes, Sodium Thiocyanate is highly hygroscopic. To avoid agglomeration, it should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse, sealed tightly in moisture-proof packaging, and kept away from humid environments and water sources.
Can Sodium Thiocyanate be used in food-grade applications for export?
Yes, food-grade Sodium Thiocyanate meets international food safety standards, with strict limits on impurities and heavy metals. It can be used in food processing after passing relevant inspections, suitable for export food production.
What is the difference between industrial-grade and pharmaceutical-grade Sodium Thiocyanate?
The main difference lies in the purity and impurity content: pharmaceutical-grade Sodium Thiocyanate has higher purity (usually ≥ 99.0%) and stricter control over harmful impurities, suitable for pharmaceutical synthesis; industrial-grade is mainly used in industrial fields with relatively loose purity requirements.
