Sodium Lignosulfonate (CAS 8061-51-6) is a yellow-brown amorphous powder and anionic polyelectrolyte derived from the sulfite pulping process of wood, primarily utilized as a cost-effective water-reducing admixture in concrete and a green strength binder in ceramics. This Lignosulfonic acid sodium salt functions as a highly efficient surface-active agent in Sodium polylignosulfate treated slurries, adsorbing onto particle surfaces to provide electrostatic repulsion that improves flowability while reducing water consumption in construction materials and animal feed pellets. To support industrial-scale requirements, we provide bulk supply with competitive factory pricing and ensure rigorous quality control through customized specifications alongside standard technical documentation, including MSDS, TDS, COA.

FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain
-
Q:
What is the main difference between Sodium Lignosulfonate and Calcium Lignosulfonate?
A: Sodium Lignosulfonate (CAS 8061-51-6) generally offers better water solubility and lower air-entraining properties compared to the Calcium salt, making it more suitable for high-performance concrete and applications requiring precise dispersion without excessive retardation. -
Q:
Can this product be used in animal feed?
A: Yes, specific grades of Sodium Lignosulfonate are widely used as a pellet binder and lubricant in the animal feed industry, helping to improve pellet durability and reduce fines during processing.
