http://www.niacet.com/sodium-acetate-60.html NIACET Sodium Acetate, 60% or Sodium Acetate Trihydrate is a non toxic substance in the form of clear, fine crystals. Its used as a flavoring agent, adjuvant, and for pH control. It contains a large amount of water that is given off when heated. Made in Niagara Falls, NY USA en-us images/pdf_download.gif http://www.niacet.com/sodium-acetate-60.php sodium-acetate-60/sodium-acetate-60-base.php Sodium Acetate, 60% is a trihydrate in the form of clear, fine crystals. The product contains about 40% water of crystallization. At warm temperature and normal humidity, the percentage of water does not vary more than 2%. As the temperature increases, this product loses water content readily, and becomes completely anhydrous at 120°C. It is available in food chemical codex and technical grades.

SS Freight Description: Sodium Acetate sodium-acetate-60/shipping-data.php sodium-acetate-60/applications.php NIACET Sodium Acetate, 60% is a trihydrate in the form of clear, fine crystals. The product contains about 40% water of crystallization. At warm temperature and normal humidity, the percentage of water does not vary more than 2%. As the temperature increases, this product loses water content readily, and becomes completely anhydrous at 120°C. The trihydrate is readily soluble in water to the extent of 76 grams per 100 grams of water at 0°C. Having a negative heat of solution, it lowers the temperature of water as it dissolves. 1 gram dissolves in about 19 ml. of alcohol. NIACET Sodium Acetate, 60% is packed inside of 200-pound net weight lined fiber drums. This packaging permits the removal of small amounts as required and resealing to prevent accidental contamination of the remaining material.
