  2. Sulfite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfite

    A space-filling model of the sulfite anion. Sulfites or sulphites are compounds that contain the sulfite ion (systematic name: sulfate(IV) ion), SO 2− 3. The sulfite ion is the conjugate base of bisulfite. Although its acid (sulfurous acid) is elusive, [1] its salts are widely used. Sulfites are substances that naturally occur in some foods ...

  3. Sulfite sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfite_sulfate

    A sulfite sulfate is a chemical compound that contains both sulfite and sulfate anions [SO 3] 2− [SO 4] 2−. These compounds were discovered in the 1980s as calcium and rare earth element salts. Minerals in this class were later discovered. Minerals may have sulfite as an essential component, or have it substituted for another anion as in ...

  4. Sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfate

    Radium sulfate is the most insoluble sulfate known. The barium derivative is useful in the gravimetric analysis of sulfate: if one adds a solution of most barium salts, for instance barium chloride, to a solution containing sulfate ions, barium sulfate will precipitate out of solution as a whitish powder. This is a common laboratory test to ...

  5. Sulfite process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfite_process

    The competing chemical pulping process, the sulfate or kraft process was developed by Carl F. Dahl in 1879 and the first kraft mill started (in Sweden) in 1890. [3] The first sulphite mill in the United States was the Richmond Paper Company in Rumford, Rhode Island in the mid-1880s.

  6. Sodium sulfite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_sulfite

    Sodium sulfite (sodium sulphite) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na 2 SO 3. A white, water-soluble solid, it is used commercially as an antioxidant and preservative. It is also suitable for the softening of lignin in the pulping and refining processes of wood and lignocellulosic materials. [1]

    Sulfites can cause allergies or sensitivities, says Purvi Parikh, MD, an allergist with Allergy & Asthma Network. However, this is rare. Reactions can be more common in people with asthma.

  8. Sodium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_sulfate

    Sodium sulfate is a typical electrostatically bonded ionic sulfate. The existence of free sulfate ions in solution is indicated by the easy formation of insoluble sulfates when these solutions are treated with Ba 2+ or Pb 2+ salts: Na 2 SO 4 + BaCl 2 → 2 NaCl + BaSO 4. Sodium sulfate is unreactive toward most oxidizing or reducing agents.

  9. Dissolving pulp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolving_pulp

    Dissolving pulp is made from the sulfite process or the kraft process with an acid prehydrolysis step to remove hemicelluloses. For the highest quality, it should be derived from fast-grown hardwoods with low non-cellulose content. [3] The sulfite process produces pulp with a cellulose content up to 92 percent.
