Properties: White or slightly yellow crystalline powder with a strong SO2 odor, relative density 1.4, easily soluble in water and glycerol. The aqueous solution is acidic, and solubility increases with rising temperature. Slightly soluble in ethanol. When exposed to air, it oxidizes and deteriorates easily, continuously releasing SO2, eventually converting the product into sodium sulfate. Therefore, this product should not be stored for long periods. It decomposes when heated to 150°C.

Packaging: 25 kg plastic woven bags, 25 kg kraft paper bags, 25 kg polyethylene plastic bags, 500 kg/1000 kg/1100 kg/1200 kg flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBC), or customized according to customer requirements.
