Sodium Sulfate Anhydrous (Salt Cake)
Sodium sulfate anhydrous, also called salt cake, is a white crystalline powder widely used in the glass, paper, and detergent industries as a filler and fluxing agent. It is a separate chemically defined compound of sodium sulfate, not a hydrate, and is classified as 'other' sodium sulphates under tariff item 2833.19.00.
Sodium Sulfate Decahydrate Technical Grade
Sodium sulfate decahydrate technical grade is a hydrated form of sodium sulfate, often used in heat packs and as a laboratory reagent. It does not meet the specific criteria for Glauber's salt in terms of purity or form, so it is classified as 'other' sodium sulphates under tariff item 2833.19.00. The product is a separate chemically defined compound with added water of crystallization.
