Chemically identified as sodium hydrogen sulfite with the molecular formula HNaO3S and a molecular weight of 104.06, this high-performance liquid solution offers a stable and convenient method for introducing active bisulfite ions into complex chemical processes. Alliance Chemical proudly distributes this chemical solution to meet the rigorous operational demands of industrial facilities nationwide, ensuring consistent performance in environmental and manufacturing applications that require precise stoichiometric chemical addition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOperating as a trusted Texas chemical supplier and distributor since 1997, Alliance Chemical ensures that our Sodium Bisulfite 40% liquid consistently meets strict technical specifications. This clear to pale yellow solution features a specific gravity of approximately 1.48 and exhibits a characteristic slight sulfurous odor that must be managed with proper ventilation systems. By opting for this pre-formulated liquid concentration within our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/salts\"\u003esalts collection\u003c\/a\u003e, operators eliminate the severe dust hazards, handling risks, and mixing times associated with dry crystalline powders, thereby improving overall facility efficiency and employee safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Grade\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile a formal analytical grade is not applicable for this standard commercial formulation, maintaining a precise 40% concentration is critical for process stability and automated volumetric dosing calculations. Selecting a 40% aqueous solution ensures that the chemical remains completely dissolved at standard operating temperatures, preventing crystallization and subsequent blockages in dosing pumps, lines, and injection nozzles. Facilities designed for liquid sodium bisulfite rely on this standard concentration to avoid the operational downtime and equipment damage caused by erratic concentration levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUtilizing an incorrect concentration or an inconsistent grade can lead to severe process failure modes. If the concentration drifts below 40%, the dosage rates become insufficient, leading to incomplete dechlorination or inadequate chemical reduction in industrial waste streams. Conversely, higher concentrations risk crystallization in cold weather, which clogs pipes and fouls monitoring instruments. By utilizing our consistent \u003ca href=\"\/products\/sodium-bisulfite-40\"\u003eSodium Bisulfite 40%\u003c\/a\u003e solution, industrial facilities can maintain precise control over their chemical reactions, protecting downstream equipment in \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/industries\/water-treatment\"\u003eindustrial water processing\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"chemical-profile\" data-source=\"canonical\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChemical Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCAS Number\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e7631-90-5\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eChemical Formula\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eHNaO3S\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMolecular Weight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e104.06 g\/mol\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBoiling Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eDecomposes (NIOSH, 2024) °C\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMelting Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eDecomposes (NIOSH, 2024) °C\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eSpecific Gravity\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1.48 at 68 °F (USCG, 1999) - Denser than water; will sink\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAppearance\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eSodium bisulfite appears as white crystals or crystalline powder.
