Sodium acetate properties
1. Chemical properties
Chemical formula: CH₃COONa
Molecular weight: 82.03 g/mol (anhydrous matter); 136.08 g/mol (trihydrate)
Structure: Composed of the radical acetate ion (CH₃COO⁻) and sodium ion (Na +).
pH value: The aqueous solution is weakly alkaline, pH is about 8-9.
2. Physical properties
Appearance:
Anhydrous sodium acetate: white crystalline powder.
Sodium acetate trihydrate (CH₃COONa·3H₂O) : colorless transparent crystal.
Solubility:
Soluble in water, solubility increases significantly with temperature (at 20°C, about 46.5 g per 100 mL of water).
Slightly soluble in ethanol, insoluble.
Melting point:
Anhydrous sodium acetate: 324°C.
Sodium acetate trihydrate: 58°C (dehydration decomposition).
Density:
Anhydrous sodium acetate: 1.528 g/cm³.
Sodium acetate trihydrate: 1.45g /cm³.
Hygroscopic: Sodium acetate trihydrate is easy to hygroscopic, and anhydrous sodium acetate hygroscopic is low.
3. Thermal stability
Heated decomposition. When heated to high temperatures, sodium acetate decomposes to
form sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) and methane (CH₄)
Use of sodium acetate in chemical raw materials
1. Water treatment
Principle of action:
Sodium acetate can be used as a carbon source to promote the growth and metabolism of microorganisms.
Application scenario:
Sewage treatment: Used in activated sludge method and biofilm method to
improve the efficiency of sewage treatment.
Denitrification process: as a carbon source, promoting denitrifying bacteria to convert nitrates into nitrogen.
2. Other applications
(1) Snow melting agent
Principle of action:
Sodium acetate is used as an environmentally friendly snow melting agent for deicing roads and airports.
Application scenario:
Road deicing: used for winter road deicing to reduce the damage to the environment and vehicles.
Airport deicing: Used for deicing airport runways to ensure flight safety.
(2) Hot compress bag
Principle of action:
Take advantage of the supercooled nature of sodium acetate trihydrate (CH₃ ·3H₂O) to make a reusable hot pack.
Application scenario:
Medical: Used as a medical hot compress to relieve pain and muscle tension.
Daily warmth: Used for daily warmth to provide continuous heat.
3. Use precautions
Dosage control:
According to the specific application requirements,
the amount of sodium acetate should be controlled reasonably to avoid excessive use.
Safety protection:
Sodium acetate is less toxic to humans, but it is still necessary to wear protective gear
and avoid direct contact with skin and eyes.
Environmental impact:
Sodium acetate is environmentally friendly, but it still needs to be used rationally to avoid excessive emissions.
Step 4: Advantages
Versatility: It has a variety of uses in chemical raw materials, such as chemical synthesis, buffer,
complexing agent and electroplating industry.
Economy: Low cost, suitable for large-scale chemical production.
Environmental protection: friendly to the environment, easy to degrade.
