Sodium sulfate
Sodium sulfate is a white crystalline solid widely used in industry, primarily as a drying agent and in the manufacture of glass, detergents, and textiles. It is also found in some industries as a filler and in chemical processes due to its solubility in water and low toxicity.

CLIRIK offers a comprehensive range of sodium sulphate crushing and grinding systems. Our technology is designed to optimize your production efficiency, significantly reduce specific energy consumption, and meet the most stringent manufacturing requirements for various sodium sulphate-based products.

Material Introduction
Sodium sulfate, also known in its anhydrous form as thenardite or “salt cake,” has the chemical formula Na₂SO₄. It occurs naturally in saline lake deposits or as a byproduct of various chemical processes. It is characterized by its high white crystalline appearance and its ability to dissolve readily in water.
Physically, sodium sulfate is relatively soft with a Mohs hardness of 2–3, making it easy to grind into fine, free-flowing powders. Chemically, it is very stable and does not react with most oxidizing or reducing agents at normal temperatures. Its most significant industrial trait is its role as a “leveling agent” and filler, as it does not interfere with the chemical action of active ingredients like surfactants or dyes. In its processed form, the particle size and purity are critical, especially in detergent manufacturing, where uniform distribution and anti-caking properties are essential for high-quality consumer products.

Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC)
Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) is produced by the mechanical pulverization of natural minerals like limestone or marble. Since it involves no chemical transformation, it retains the mineral’s original stability but features an irregular, fragmented structure.

Key Properties: High density, low oil absorption, and excellent flowability.

Industrial Value: Used as a “functional filler” in plastics, rubber, and coatings. It increases volume and hardness while allowing high loading levels to significantly reduce production costs.

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC)
Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC), or light calcium carbonate, is a synthetic compound produced through a chemical carbonation process. By calcining limestone and reacting it with CO₂, manufacturers can precisely control the particle morphology to create specific shapes like spindles, spheres, or needles.

Key Properties: Ultra-high whiteness, narrow particle size distribution, and high sedimentation volume.

Industrial Value: Its microporous structure and large specific surface area make it ideal for high-end paper, specialized paints, and pharmaceuticals requiring reinforcement and superior brightness.

Industrial Applications
1
200 – 400 Mesh (D97: 75-38μm): Synthetic Detergents & Glass Industry
Applications :
Primarily used as a functional filler in Washing Powders and as a refining agent (flux) in glass manufacturing.
Advantages :
In detergents, it serves as a cost-effective bulk filler that ensures the free-flowing property of the powder. In glass making, it helps remove small air bubbles and acts as a flux to lower the melting temperature of the silica mix.
2
800 – 1250 Mesh (D97: 18-10μm): Textile Dyeing & Kraft Papermaking
Applications :
Essential Leveling Agent in textile dyeing processes and a critical chemical in the Kraft pulping process for paper.
Advantages :
At this fineness, it ensures rapid and uniform dissolution in dye baths, helping dyes penetrate fibers evenly to prevent streaking. In papermaking, it is used to replenish sulfur and sodium in the chemical recovery cycle.
3
1500 – 2500 Mesh (D97: 10-5μm): Chemical Synthesis & Fine Coatings
Applications :
Used as a precursor for producing high-purity Sodium Silicate and as a stabilizer in specialized coatings.
Advantages :
The increased surface area and high purity allow for more efficient chemical reactions and better integration into liquid coating systems, providing improved consistency and chemical resistance.
4
3000 Mesh + (D97: ≤5μm): Pharmaceuticals & Specialty Polymers
Applications :
Specialized functional ingredient for Pharmaceutical Formulations and high-precision polymer additives requiring extreme consistency.
Advantages :
The ultra-fine particle size ensures perfect dispersion and rapid solubility, which is critical for high-precision medical applications and specialty chemicals where particle morphology is paramount.
