Sodium persulfate
Sodium peroxosulphate (short form NaPS, trade name sodium persulfate) is the salt of peroxodisulphuric acid. 
It is a strong oxidizer and radical donator for polymerisation. Due to its high oxidation potential it can cause ignition under certain conditions. 
NaPS is highly soluble in water, aqueous solutions show an acidic reaction and have limited stability 

Unlike ammonium persulfate, NaPS is free of ammonium ions and causes fewer problems in wastewater treatment.


Applications
The most important application for NaPS is in the water-based emulsion polymerisation of organic monomers in aqueous systems. 
he monomers are either sufficiently soluble in water and precipitate during polymerisation or polymerisation takes place in an aqueous emulsion of the monomers, as with styrene-butadiene and Acrylonitrile.

Large quantities of NaPS are used for etching and pickling metal surfaces (copper and copper alloys). 
Etching thin copper coating is a key part in the production of printed circuit boards.


Other applications of NaPS
in the cosmetics industry as a booster for hair bleaches and an oxidizer in hair dyes
in the paper industry for re-pulping and de-inking
in order to recover metals and metal salts, for oxidative treatment of high grade metal ores
in the photographic industry for regenerating bleaching baths for color stock
in the textile industry for de-sizing
for the production of desinfectants
in-situ decontamination of industrial areas: degradation of chlorinated hydrocarbons

Persulfates are widely used as polymerization initiators in the plastic's industry, and as etchants, desizing agent, etc. Our product line includes ammonium persulfate, potassium persulfate, sodium persulfate, and SPS superficially designed for the soft etching of printed circuit boards.

Production
The salt is prepared by the electrolytic oxidation of sodium hydrogen sulfate:

2 NaHSO4 → Na2S2O8 + H2
Oxidation is conducted at a platinum anode. In this way about 165,000 tons were produced in 2005

The standard redox potential of sodium persulfate into hydrogen sulfate is 2.1 V, which is higher than that of hydrogen peroxide (1.8 V) but lower than ozone (2.2 V).
The sulfate radical formed in situ has a standard electrode potential of 2.7 V.

However, there are a few drawbacks in utilizing platinum anodes to produce the salts; the manufacturing process is inefficient due to oxygen evolution and the product could contain contaminants coming from platinum corrosion. 
Thus, boron-doped diamond electrodes have been proposed as alternatives to the conventional platinum electrodes

Applications
It is mainly used as a radical initiator for emulsion polymerization reactions for styrene based polymers such as Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene.
Also applicable for accelerated curing of low formaldehyde adhesives.

Other uses
It is a bleach, both standalone (particularly in hair cosmetics) and as a detergent component. 
It is a replacement for ammonium persulfate in etching mixtures for zinc and printed circuit boards, and is used for pickling of copper and some other metals.

It is also used as a soil conditioner and for soil and groundwater remediation and in manufacture of dyestuffs, modification of starch, bleach activator, desizing agent for oxidative desizing, etc.

Organic chemistry
Sodium persulfate is a specialized oxidizing agent in chemistry, classically in the Elbs persulfate oxidation and the Boyland–Sims oxidation reactions. 
It is also used in radical reactions; for example in a synthesis of diapocynin from apocynin where iron(II) sulfate is the radical initiator.

Sodium persulfate has strong oxidizing. 
There is a strong irritation to the skin, prolonged contacting with the skin can cause allergies, should pay attention to it when operation. 
Rat oral LD50 is 895mg/kg. 

Strong oxidants
With strong oxidizing, Sodium persulfate can be used as an g agent, which can oxidize Cr3 +, Mn2 + and so on to the corresponding compound of high oxidation state, when there is the presence of Ag +, which can promote the oxidation reaction. 
Due to its oxidizing properties, it can be used as a bleaching agent, metal surface treatment agent, chemical reagents, pharmaceutical raw materials, accelerator and initiator of battery and emulsion polymerization.

Uses
Sodium persulfate is used as a bleach, both standalone (particularly in hair cosmetics) and as a detergent component. 
It is a replacement for ammonium persulfate in etching mixtures for zinc and printed circuit boards, and is used for pickling of copper and some other metals.

Sodium peroxydisulfate (commonly called sodium persulfate) is a commercial chemical particularly useful for etching printed circuits, for cleaning copper before plating or soldering, and for initiating polymerization reactions. 
Other commercially available persulfate salts are ammonium persulfate and potassium persulfate; however, ammonium persulfate introduces objectionable ammonium ions into solution, while the solubility of potassium persulfate is much less than ammonium or sodium persulfate. Consequently, sodium persulfate is the preferred compound for some applications.


Sodium persulfate is the inorganic compound with the formula Na2S2O8. 
It is a white solid that dissolves in water. 
It is almost non-hygroscopic and has good shelf-life.

It is mainly used as a radical initiator for emulsion polymerization reactions for styrene based polymers such as Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. 
Also applicable for accelerated curing of low formaldehyde adhesives. 
Can be used as a bleach and as detergent component, soil conditioner and soil remediation and in manufacture of dyestuffs, modification of starch, bleach activator, desizing agent for oxidative desizing, etc.
Can also be a replacement for ammonium persulfate in etching mixtures for ammonium persulfate in etching mixtures for zinc and printed circuit boards.



Sodium persulfate can be catalyzed with iron, acid, base and heat. 
This allows sodium persulfate to be effective over a wide range of subsurface conditions. 
A total organic carbon test is completed with sodium persulfate at 60C. 
Therefore, when thermally catalyzed persulfate is used, it is equivalent to completing an in situ TOC test.

Persulfate is a strong oxidant that has been widely used for initiating emulsion polymerization reactions, clarifying swimming pools, hair bleaching, micro-etching of copper printed circuit boards, and TOC analysis. 
Among all the persulfate salts typically manufactured (sodium, potassium, and ammonium salts), the sodium form is the most commonly used for environmental applications in the last few years. 
Sodium persulfate has the potential to in-situ destruct chlorinated and non-chlorinated organic compounds commonly encountered in contaminated soil and groundwater.

The persulfate anion is one of the strongest oxidants used in remediation. The standard oxidation reduction potential for the reaction

 

S2O82- + 2H+ + 2e– => 2 HSO4–

is 2.1 V, as compared to 1.8 V for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). This potential is higher than the redox potential for the permanganate anion (MnO4– ) at 1.7 V, but slightly lower than that of ozone at 2.2 V.

Another persulfate oxidation mechanism is through free radicals. With the presence of some catalyst, like heat, persulfate can be induced to form sulfate radicals.

 

S2O82- + initiator => SO4 •?+ SO4•?

 

The sulfate radical has a similar reaction mechanism to the hydroxyl radical generated by the Fenton’s chemistry. 
The sulfate radical is one of the strongest oxidizing species with a redox potential estimated to be 2.6 V, similar to that of the hydroxyl radical, 2.7 V.

Persulfate and sulfate radical oxidation has several advantages over other oxidant systems. 
In addition to its robust treatment capabilities, the sulfate radical is more stable than the hydroxyl radical stable and therefore able to transport to greater distances in the sub-surface. 
Comparing to permanganate, persulfate has less affinity for natural soil organics and is thus more efficient in high organic soils. 
These attributes make persulfate a viable option for the chemical oxidation of a broad range of contaminants.
